  ITU-T A.5 justification information for referenced document XML Information Set X893 (2004) in draft X.892
1. Clear description of the referenced document:

3. Justification for the specific reference:

X.892 specifies a mapping from an ASN.1 SOAP message to a W3C SOAP message infoset (an XML infoset), thus Industry needs to be informed of where XML Information Set originated as it was not defined by ISO or ITU-T.
4. Current information, if any, about IPR issues:
No Issues.
5. Other useful information describing the "Quality" of the document:
XML Information Set was published in February 2004, and has been widely used. Conformance requirements are clear, and the specification is readily and widely available.
6. The degree of stability or maturity of the document:
The document is considered stable and provides a complete description of the XML Information Set.
7. Relationship with other existing or emerging documents:
