- Internet Services RFI. IPSIG issued an Internet Services Request for Information (see the press release from OMG) in mid-1997 and received three responses (MITRE, OBJS, Data Access). These responses were analyzed in meetings #8 and #9 and recommendationswere forwarded to ORBOS and Common Facilities task forces in meetings #9 and #10 to become ORBOS roadmap items. Several RFPs resulted: Internet Services, Firewalls, Java Reverse Mapping.
- Compositional Software Architectures. This work item resulted in a paper Thoughts on OMA-NG: The Next Generation Object Management Architecture (also on OMG document server as ormsc/97-09-01.html), which listed a number of extensions needed in the OMG OMA to scale to the Internet. The work item, completed in ISIG, moved to ORMSC (see meeting #13), where there is a green paper effort called the ORMSC Reference Model Green Paper Also see workshops below.
