This standard, 19770-3 is focused on providing standardized software entitlement tags that can be provided by software publishers and resellers and used by SAM practitioners. The intent of the 19770-3 standard is to provide a well defined and structured data model for software license entitlements that can help automate the software compliance processes of organizations. If you're interested in helping to create the next wave of SAM standards, contact John Tomeny via e-mail - johnt@sassafras.com (mailto:johnt@sassafras.com).
