W3C Recommendations & the FEA TRM

I posted a listing of W3C Recommendations that are and are not currently in
the U.S. Federal Enterprise Architecture (FEA) Technical Reference Model
(TRM) at 
http://xml.gov/index.asp#w3c or, more specifically, at
http://xml.gov/draft/W3CRecommendationsFEATRM.pdf

A similar listing for OASIS standards is at
http://xml.gov/draft/OASISStandardsFEATRM.htm 

Hopefully, the eGov IG can identify those that are most important to support
its objectives:  http://xml.gov/stratml/WEIG.xml

BTW, the StratML search services at
http://xml.gov/stratml/index.htm#SearchServices can be used to identify
organizations whose strategic plans explicitly reference W3C Recommendations
and OASIS standards.  

For example, it is easy to determine that the Center for Democracy and
Technology (CDT), for which Ari Schwartz toils, is strategically interested
in P3P:
http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=P3P&btnG=Google+Search&doma
ins=xml.gov%2Fstratml&sitesearch=xml.gov%2Fstratml 

While it would be unreasonable to expect many agencies to explicitly
reference W3C Recommendations or OASIS standards in their general purpose,
overall strategic plans, their IRM/IT plans certainly should address such
technical standards.  Toward that end, it would be good if the eGov IG could
draft a basic "strategic plan" comprising the most important standards for
interoperability, which agencies could use as a "model" (a grossly over used
term) or template (a somewhat less abused term) for their own more detailed
IRM/IT strat plans.

Owen,

Thanks. Could you please propose this as a new agenda item at the  
beginning of the call today? I'll be on a plane and will join the call  
late (if at all).

I think we are getting there wrt specific topics. I've seen this one,  
the "legislation on the Web" one, the things Rick should be  
contributing soon, and Chairs discussed about basic WebArch issues  
last Friday (minutes to be sent very soon).

Jose.
