    >This document, approved by the TAB, proposes rules for how OASIS artifacts 
    >(e.g. specifications, schemas, WSDL) are named, what metadata must be 
    >associated with each artifact, consistent filenames and persistent (and 
    >consistent) URIs for artifacts (incorporating some of the required 
    >metadata), and updates to the OASIS URN spaces.
    >
    >This work furthers goals for consistent naming, persistent URIs, and the 
    >efficiency of data and document management across OASIS. Many of the 
    >recommendations are already in effect, e.g. in the current document 
    >templates. Others are guidance for work in progress, e.g. persistent URIs 
    >for accessing OASIS artifacts.
    >
    >Please carefully consider the proposed requirements, as their 
    >implementation will facilitate pending improvements in OASIS document 
    >management, process automation, and expression of namespaces.
    >
    >While this document is written as a set of requirements, the use of this 
    >document is recommended and not mandated. After this second General 
    >Membership review in February 2006, we expect that the OASIS Technical 
    >Advisory Board will approve a future version as a contribution to ongoing 
    >OASIS policy discussions.

    >Earlier versions of this document, under various names, have been 
    >circulated to the OASIS Chairs email list and (as the "Artifact
