<P><FONT size=2>To OASIS members, Public Announce Lists:<BR><BR>The OASIS
Service Oriented Architecture Reference Model (SOA-RM) TC has
recently<BR>approved the following specification as a Committee Draft and
approved the<BR>package for public review:<BR><BR>Reference Architecture for
Service Oriented Architecture Version 1.0<BR><BR>The public review starts today,
9 May 2008, and ends 8 July 2008. This is an<BR>open invitation to comment. We
strongly encourage feedback from potential users,<BR>developers and others,
whether OASIS members or not, for the sake of improving<BR>the interoperability
and quality of OASIS work. Please feel free to distribute<BR>this announcement

document specifies the OASIS Reference Architecture for Service
Oriented<BR>Architecture. It follows from the concepts and relationships defined
in the<BR>OASIS Reference Model for Service Oriented Architecture. While
it remains<BR>abstract in nature, the current document describes one possible
template upon<BR>which a SOA concrete architecture can be built.<BR><BR>"Our
focus in this architecture is on an approach to integrating business with<BR>the
information technology needed to support it. The issues involved
with<BR>integration are always present, but, we find, are thrown into clear
focus when<BR>business integration involves crossing ownership
boundaries.<BR><BR>...<BR><BR>"The Reference Architecture has three main views:
the Business via Service view<BR>which lays the foundation for conducting
business in the context of Service<BR>Oriented Architecture; the Realizing
Services view which addresses the<BR>requirements for constructing a Service
Oriented Architecture; and the Owning<BR>Service Oriented Architecture view
which focuses on the governance and<BR>management of SOA-based
systems."<BR><BR><BR>OASIS and the Service Oriented Architecture Reference Model
