Interested in Joining OSS/J?

There are two ways to participate in OSS/J: (1) as an adopter of our APIs, and (2) as a member of the Initiative.

Adoption is easy and does not require formal membership. You simply certify that your product implements or uses one or more OSS/J APIs. Once your product has been certified, it will be listed on our Web site. Learn about the OSS/J certification process.

If you want to add functionality to OSS/J and work more closely with our members, you may want to become a member. Members participate in activities such as the definition and production of APIs and/or supporting tools and case studies. They are expected to demonstrate a real commitment to the Initiative and to contribute resources.

For more information about membership, please contact us at ossj-info@tmforum.org

The OSS/J Charter
The charter defines how OSS/J is closely aligned with the TM Forum’s strategic plan and execution roadmap. As a TM Forum Technical Program, OSS/J has tighter coordination with other TM Forum technical, educational, membership and promotion activities. 

OSS/J Operating Guide
The Operating Guide defines the operational aspects of the OSS/J governance model. It complements the OSS/J participant legal agreement and may evolve independently of the legal agreement to formalize the necessary changes in OSS/J operations that are needed to meet the Initiative's goals.
