History[edit | edit source]

OASIS was originally called “SGML Open." Founded in 1993, it was a consortium of vendors and users focused on developing guidelines for interoperability among products supporting the Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML). In 1998, the organization's name was changed to OASIS.
