-----Original Message----- From: w3c-ac-members-request@w3.org [mailto:w3c-ac-members-request@w3.org] On Behalf Of Susan Lesch Sent: Tuesday, September 04, 2007 10:11 AM To: w3c-ac-members@w3.org Cc: Philippe Le Hegaret; Felix Sasaki Subject: Web Services Policy 1.5 Is a Recommendation Dear Advisory Committee Representative, I am pleased to announce that the "Web Services Policy 1.5 - Framework" and "Web Services Policy 1.5 - Attachment" specifications are now W3C Recommendations: http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-ws-policy-20070904 http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-ws-policy-attach-20070904 All but one of the Members who responded to the Call for Review of the Proposed Recommendations [1] supported the specification as is and agreed to its publication as W3C Recommendation without changes. One reviewer supports the specification but suggested that additional work would be undertaken to specify a mechanism for associating WS-Policy with an Endpoint Reference, relying on the WS-PAEPR [2] W3C Member Submission. W3C has brought this Submission to the attention of the Web Services Addressing and Web Services Policy Working Groups as well as the Web Services Coordination Group. W3C is hoping to come up with a proposed charter in the upcoming weeks to resolve the missing mechanism for associating Web Services Policy with an Endpoint Reference. Please join us in congratulating the Web Services Policy Working Group [3] on this achievement.

Abstract The Web Services Policy 1.5 - Framework provides a general purpose model and corresponding syntax to describe the policies of entities in a Web services-based system. Web Services Policy Framework defines a base set of constructs that can be used and extended by other Web services specifications to describe a broad range of service requirements and capabilities. Status of this Document This is the W3C Recommendation of the Web Services Policy 1.5 - Framework specification. It has been produced by the Web Services Policy Working Group, which is part of the W3C Web Services Activity. This document has been reviewed by W3C Members, by software developers, and by other W3C groups and interested parties, and is endorsed by the Director as a W3C Recommendation. It is a stable document and may be used as reference material or cited from another document. W3C's role in making the Recommendation is to draw attention to the specification and to promote its widespread deployment. This enhances the functionality and interoperability of the Web. The Working Group released a test suite along with an implementation report. A diff-marked version against the previous version of this document is available. The Working Group is tracking all comments via Bugzilla and highly prefers to receive comments via this system. If access to Bugzilla is not feasible, you may send your comments to the mailing list public-ws-policy-comments@w3.org mailing list (public archive). Each Bugzilla entry and email message should contain only one comment. All comments on this specification should be made following the Description for Issues of the Working Group. This document was produced by a group operating under the 5 February 2004 W3C Patent Policy. W3C maintains a public list of any patent disclosures made in connection with the deliverables of the group; that page also includes instructions for disclosing a patent. An individual who has actual knowledge of a patent which the individual believes contains Essential Claim(s) must disclose the information in accordance with section 6 of the W3C Patent Policy. ============================================== Quoting from the Web Services Policy 1.5 - Attachment W3C Recommendation 4 September 2007 ============================================== This version: http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-ws-policy-attach-20070904 Latest version: http://www.w3.org/TR/ws-policy-attach Previous version: http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/PR-ws-policy-attach-20070706/ Editors: Asir S Vedamuthu, Microsoft Corporation David Orchard, BEA Systems, Inc.

Abstract This specification, Web Services Policy 1.5 - Attachment, defines two general-purpose mechanisms for associating policies, as defined in Web Services Policy 1.5 - Framework, with the subjects to which they apply. This specification also defines how these general-purpose mechanisms may be used to associate policies with WSDL and UDDI descriptions.

It has been produced by the Web Services Policy Working Group, which is part of the W3C Web Services Activity.
