Hi everyone, I'd like to propose Ossie for incubation and seek your feedback on the project.
I created the proposal here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/INCUBATOR/OssieProposal Apache Ossie comes from Open Semantic Interchange ( https://open-semantic-interchange.org/). It is an open specification defining a vendor-neutral format for expressing business metrics, dimensions, and their relationships. It enables any tool to consume and produce semantic definitions without loss of meaning. Open Semantic Interchange solves the problem of "semantic drift": the idea that the same business concept (e.g., "Monthly Active Users") is defined inconsistently across an organization's systems. By providing a shared, machine-readable format for metric definitions and their underlying logic, Ossie allows systems to exchange not just data but the intent behind that data. Unlike rigid schema-mapping approaches, Ossie achieves this through standardized ontologies and a decentralized architecture where systems read semantic metadata directly from the source rather than relying on point-to-point field translations. The project provides two main components: - The specification itself - Bindings and converters (from different formats) I'm looking for your feedback and comments. Thanks! Regards JB
