Standards groups from around the world have come together in the interests of advancing interoperability between standards. We have agreed to the following actions:
 | We will respect and maximize the investment of our members by actively seeking ways to avoid duplication of efforts and overlapping development, notifying one another whenever new work is initiated. | | | We will encourage our technical working groups to interact with other consortia on related efforts. | | | We will communicate in an open forum on a regular basis, scheduling quarterly teleconferences to review potential overlaps. | | | We will participate in regular face-to-face meetings at the Interoperability Summit. | To find out more about the Interoperability Pledge, or to join us, please contact Chuck Allen |
