Re: [paho-dev] Committer input requested: Eclipse participation in OASIS

[Scott de Deugd <dedeugd@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Good points Andy. 

Not surprisingly, we did receive a lot
of similar  input along these when lines putting together the Charter
proposal.  So far everyone involved wants to keep it lightweight and
to get to a level of standardization  based on v3.1 without causing
disruption to existing implementations and deployments. To that end we
spent a lot of time  defining/scoping backward compatibility  in
the proposed Charter.  I believe it is appropriate.

We did touch base with the AMQP OASIS
group and have included positioning between the two.  Of course more
on that topic is always better, so perhaps there will be opportunities
soon for wastepapers or articles.

The Technical Committee will operate
under OASIS Non Assertion Terms.

OASIS has been involved in some rather heavy-weight standards often involving
XML and large committees.  Hopefully, MQTT can be kept focused and
fat-free.

Looks like AMQP is also under OASIS's umbrella ... so, we may need to clearly
distinguish the differences and situations where MQTT stands-out.

When it comes to patents and royalty-fees ... presumably we'd be aiming
for a royalty-free, Non-Assertion arrangement.
