Pretty common, I think, for a proposal to be brought into the OASIS 
process already reasonably well-formed.  CAP, for example, already 
had two years of working group activity and two rounds of field 
trials behind it before it came into the TC.  One key reason is that 
we're a "technical committee"... our strength is in the technical 
aspects, but we have less depth in the operational / business process 
and user requirements, so for that we turn to the practitioner 
community.

In any event, I passed this to the IF team not for standardization 
but just for information about an ongoing activity that might help 
focus some of our conversations.
