11. UPnP v2 • Align UPnP with Web Services • Motivation for v2 • Unify development tools for UPnP devices and Web services • Unify developer experience and knowledge • Unify protocols so that a single stack communicates with both UPnP devices and Web services

12. Progress on UPnP v2 • Steering committee decided to adopt WSDL in Oct 2001 • Microsoft and IBM agreed to grant a RANDZ (no royalty) license for the use of WSDL in the context of UPnP devices • Official W3C committee working on the WSDL schema language • Established a UPnP Forum Architecture Committee for defining the UPnP v2 architecture

13. UPnP Architecture Process • Amendment to UPnP Forum member agreement • Introduced an Architecture Committee consisting of up to seven steering committee members • Ratification of UPnP architecture spec. requires unanimous approval by AC and 75% majority of the steering committee • Architecture is licensed for implementations on multiple platforms
