RESENDING, copying all members directly in CC: list since I have not seen
earlier message via the uddi-spec TC mailing list.


To: Members and Observers of the OASIS UDDI Specification Technical
Committee

With the approval of UDDI V3 earlier this year, and the momentum it has
achieved in market adoption, IBM, Microsoft and SAP have evaluated the
status of the UDDI Business Registry and determined it has achieved the
goals for the project.  Given this, we announced today to  users of the
UDDI Business Registry  that it will be discontinued as of Jan. 12, 2006.
We believe the success of  UDDI was significantly enhanced by the existence
of UBR for proof of concept and testing.  IBM, Microsoft and SAP are
pleased to have contributed to the creation of this standard and its
successful progress in the industry.  We particularly appreciate the
support and ongoing commitment of  the OASIS organization and the UDDI TC
members.

The base FAQ document that will be posted to our websites is also attached.
This FAQ may be amended by each company for specifics related to the
announcement.




SAP, IBM and Microsoft continue to be active members of the OASIS UDDI
Specification TC and their participation in that group is not affected by
this announcement.  Thanks again for your support during the UDDI Business
Registry project and we look forward to ongoing development and discussion
in this Technical Committee.

Regards,

Andrew Hately
Acting Managing Director, UDDI Business Registry
