4: Standards
Adopt standards for interoperability and federated operation of collaboration services. Other Information:
To ensure interoperability and federated operation of intra-department collaboration services, Federal CIO Council should
track standards and selectively adopt as they mature. For example: Communication services -- XMPP, used in IM and Google Wave,
is maturing. Social networking services -- Standards for profiles, relationships and contacts, activities, and widgets are
maturing. The Federal CIO Council should examine ongoing work of other enterprise collaboration efforts (e.g., OMB’s Federal
Enterprise Architecture (FEA), DoD’s Collaboration Interoperability Working Group (CIWG), IC’s Enterprise Collaboration Service
Working Group (ECSWG), etc.) and determine whether and how the various efforts can be synergized.
