Last Call: Service Modeling Language (SML) 1.1; SML Interchange Format
1.1
The Service Modeling Language Working Group has published Last Call
Working Drafts of "Service Modeling Language, Version 1.1" and
"Service Modeling Language Interchange Format, Version 1.1." The
former defines a language for modeling complex services and systems,
including their structure, constraints, policies, and best
practices. The latter defines an interchange format for SML. The
format identifies the model being interchanged, distinguishes
between model definition documents and model instance documents, and
defines the binding of rule documents with other documents in the
interchange set. Comments are welcome through 26 March. Learn more
about the Extensible Markup Language (XML) Activity.

Last Call: Element Traversal Specification
The Web API Working Group has published the Last Call Working Draft
of "Element Traversal Specification." This specification defines
the ElementTraversal interface, which allows script navigation of
the elements of a DOM tree, excluding all other nodes in the DOM,
such as text nodes. It is intended to provide a more convenient
alternative to existing DOM navigation interfaces, with a low
implementation footprint. Comments are welcome through 3 April.
