As a new sponsor and participant in OASIS, Planet 7 plans to contribute to the organization's efforts to spur the adoption of XML and related technologies as the common foundation of e-business.
The company joins a rapidly growing list of companies interested in establishing standard for XML, including local giants, Boeing, Microsoft, and Nimble technologies.
