Re: [bdxr] 60-day public reviews for Service Metadata Publishing and Business Document Metadata Service Location COS01 - end May 14th
Section 2.3.4.4 of SMP COS states that
      
    

    
ProcessList/../Endpoint/Certificate

    
is to hold:

    

    

      
      the complete [X509v3] signing
        certificate of the recipient gateway, as a base 64 encoded DER
        formatted value. 

    
In July 2016 this was discussed in the e-SENS project where it
      was commented that

    

    

      
      "A CR is needed
        indeed, either to change the description from "signing cert" to
        "encryption cert", or to add one more element for the encryption
        cert"

        

      and that

    

    
"a change should be applied to the SMP specification to state
        that this certificate is to be used for encryption. As the the
        SMP is about describing of the services a participant provides
        it does not make sense to include the signing certificate as the
        signing needs to be done by the sender of the message, i.e. the
        user of the services (which is not necessarily included as such
        in the SMP"

OASIS members and other interested parties, 

        

        

        

        
Members of the OASIS Business Document Exchange (BDXR) TC
          [1] have recently approved Special Majority Ballots [2] to
          advance Service Metadata Publishing (SMP) Version 1.0 and
          Business Document Metadata Service Location Version 1.0 as
          Candidate OASIS Standards (COS). The COSs now enter a 60-day
          public review period in preparation for a member ballot to
          consider their approval as an OASIS Standards.

        

        

        
Service Metadata Publishing (SMP) Version 1.0

        
Candidate OASIS Standard 01

        
09 March 2017

        

        

        
and 

        

        

        
Business Document Metadata Service Location Version 1.0

        
Candidate OASIS Standard 01

        
09 March 2017

        

        

        
What are the Candidate OASIS Standards and why are they
          important? 

        

        

        
"Service Metadata Publishing" describes a protocol for
          publishing service metadata within a 4-corner network, where
          entities exchange business documents through intermediary
          gateway services. 

        

        

        
To successfully send a business document in a 4-corner
          network, an entity must be able to discover critical metadata
          about the recipient (endpoint) of the business document, such
          as types of documents the endpoint is capable of receiving and
          methods of transport supported. The recipient makes this
          metadata available to other entities in the network through a
          Service Metadata Publisher service.

        

        

        
The COS describes the request/response exchanges between a
          Service Metadata Publisher and a client wishing to discover
          endpoint information. A client can either be an end-user
          business application or a gateway/access point in the 4-corner
          network. It also defines the request processing that must
          happen at the client.

        

        

        
The TC received 5 Statements of Use from Chasquis
          Consulting, Efact S.A.C., IBM, Norwegian Agency for Public
          Management and Government (Difi), and ph-peppol-smp-server
          [3]. 

        

        

        
"Business Document Metadata Service Location" defines
          service discovery method values for use in DNS Resource Record
          service fields. A method is first specified to query and
          retrieve a URL for metadata services. Two metadata service
          types are then defined. Also an auxiliary method pattern for
          discovering a registration service to enable access to
          metadata services is described. The methods defined here are
          instances of the generic pattern defined within IETF RFCs for
          Dynamic Delegation Discovery Services (DDDS). This
          specification therefore defines DDDS applications for metadata
          and metadata-registration services.

        

        

        
The TC received 3 Statements of Use from Chasquis
          Consulting, Norwegian Agency for Public Management and
          Government (Difi), and European Commission Directorate General

About the TC:

        

        

        
The OASIS BDXR TC advances an open standards framework to
          support public e-procurement and e-invoicing. The group
          defines specifications for a lightweight and federated
          messaging infrastructure that supports a 4-corner model for
          the secure and reliable exchange of electronic documents.
          Wherever possible, the TC specifications are based on profiles
          of existing standards from OASIS and elsewhere. BDXR TC
          members also coordinate the submission of new requirements as
          use cases for expanded functionality.

        

        

        
All those involved in e-procurement and e-invoicing are
          invited to participate in the BDXR TC, including public and
          private sector agencies, enterprises, solution providers,
          consultants, and researchers. E-payment actors including
          financial institutions, associations and payment networks
          should also be represented in this work.

        

        

        
Public Review Period:

        

        

        
The 60-day public review starts 16 March 2017 at 00:00 UTC
          and ends 14 May 2017 at 23:59 UTC.
