CANNES, France-The Open Mobile Alliance standards body said it completed two interoperability tests in conjunction with the 3GSM World Congress, and that it approved two new sets of specifications.
The group, whose membership now exceeds 300 companies, said it approved its Client Provisioning version 1.1 specifications, which adds support for direct access and application access provisioning. The group’s new Billing Framework version 1.0 defines elements that can be used for the recording of usage of services.
The successful interoperability tests covered instant messaging and presence services and data synchronizing.
“Since its inception the Open Mobile Alliance has continued to make steady progress towards the goal of delivering specifications that enable end-to-end interoperability,” said Mark Cataldo, chair of the OMA’s technical plenary. “While continuing to increase its membership and integrated existing forums, OMA is delivering new specifications and also completing successful interoperability tests.”
