Open SOA

原文：
The Open SOA Collaboration represents an informal group of industry leaders that share a common interest: defining a language-neutral programming model that meets the needs of enterprise developers who are developing software that exploits Service Oriented Architecture characteristics and benefits. The Collaboration is not a Standards Body; it is a set of vendors who wish to innovate rapidly in the development of this programming model and to deliver Specifications to the community for implementation. These specifications are made available to the community on a Royalty Free basis for the creation of compatible implementations. When mature, the intent is to hand these specifications over to a suitable Standards Body for future shepherding.

Open SOA合作组织是由业界领袖组成的非正式组织，在这个组织中的这些业界领袖主要围绕着一件事情：为企业软件开发者开发具有SOA特性的软件定义一种语言无 关的编程模型。这个组织不是一个标准化组织。它快速的创建编程模型的规格说明书，并交由社区来进行具体的实现。这些规格说明书通过社区进行实现而变得可 用。当这些规格说明变得成熟了，将交由适当的标准化组织进行管理。
