    Patrick:
    
    Good news, indeed. OASIS has had success in the past with submitting ou 
    completed work to ISO; the four ebXML OASIS Standards were submitted to 
    and approved by ISO TC 154 as ISO TSs.
    
    I'll point you to the OASIS Liaison Policy at 
    http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/liaison_policy.php#submitwork for 
    the process for submitting OASIS work to another org.
