 topicmaps.Org is an independent consortium of parties interested in developing the applicability of the  Topic maps Paradigm (first fully described in the ISO/IEC 13250:2000 "Topic Maps" standard ISO13250, which is SGML and HyTime-based) to the World Wide Web, which is expected to become increasingly XML-based. This work includes the development of an XML grammar for interchanging Web-based Topic Maps, called the XTM Specification, now being written by the topicmaps.Org Authoring Group (the "AG"). The 1.0 version of the XTM Specification (XTM1) is expected to be published on the topicmaps.Org web site in December, 2000. All versions of the XTM Specification will be permanently licensed to the public.
