	OASIS (organization) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) is a global consortium that drives the development, convergence and adoption of e-business and web service standards.
		Like many bodies producing open standards, OASIS has a patent disclosure policy requiring participants to disclose intent to apply for software patents for technologies under consideration in the standard.
		Supporters of OASIS point out this could occur anyway since an agreement would not be binding on non-participants, discouraging contributions from potential participants.

		The University of Iowa Organization for the Active Support of International Students (OASIS) was established to better serve the international students and scholars on campus, including individuals, nationality organizations, and underrepresented groups on campus.
		OASIS is a student run organization dedicated towards bridging various communities based on one’s nationality, creating a cohesive UI/International student body, expanding awareness of the enriching presence of the international community to University of Iowa and the local/Iowa City community, and towards providing resources and pro-active support to all international students and scholars.
		The positions on the Executive Board are exclusively reserved for student members of OASIS; however, all members (i.e., student and general, inclusive) may nominate and vote for candidates, as well as actively participate in the organization, fund-raising, and actual events of all OASIS sponsored activities.

	World Organization of Associated Sovereign Independent States -- World-OASIS -- About OASIS (Mission, Model, Agenda) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		OASIS is committed to the principles of political and economic freedom worldwide, the free flow of persons and capital worldwide, and reducing the political and economic power and control of the large nation-states over the smaller nation-states and individuals worldwide.
		OASIS Member Countries would have as a common interest the maintenance of their independence and sovereignty and the continued viability of their main or major "industry" -- providing "tax haven" and various financial and business services offshore to businesses and individuals having some exposure to the high-tax, high-control would-be rulers of the world.
		OASIS type countries do not have a physical commodity in their business and financial services, but there is certainly no lack of demand for such services.

	XML.com: A Scalable Process for Information Standards
		OASIS, the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards, is a nonprofit corporation founded in 1993 whose already open and formal process has recently been revised to speed it up and implement some procedures electronically [1].
		OASIS member sections, which are structures separate from the TC process, make possible the funding of efforts when an industry group wishes to collectively foster the development of a standard without making assumptions about its technical direction.
		OASIS provides the electronic and organizational infrastructure for TCs, but it does not in the general case contribute resources, track different initiatives, or make policy; that comes from the "interested parties" who stand to benefit from the work.

	Define OASIS - a Whatis.com definition - see also: Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards
		OASIS (Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards) is a nonprofit, international consortium whose goal is to promote the adoption of product-independent standards for information formats such as Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML), Extensible Markup Language (XML), and Hypertext Markup Language (HTML).
		Currently, OASIS (formerly known as SGML Open) is working to bring together competitors and industry standards groups with conflicting perspectives to discuss using XML as a common Web language that can be shared across applications and platforms.
		The goal of OASIS is not to create structured information standards for XML, but to provide a forum for discussion, to promote the adoption of interoperability standards, and to recommend ways members can provide better interoperability for their users.

		The OASIS ebXML Registry/Repository is a general registry, which can be used not only for business but also for any other organization or entity and for any purpose.
		The OASIS standard accomplished this generality because it uses a generic and extensible information model that can be adapted to many uses.
		Consequently, the OASIS ebXML Registry /Repository standard enables a powerful and flexible registry that can be deployed as a public registry, a private registry used within an organization, or a registry shared by an organization and its partners.
