Contributing

OVS-AI is developed through an open process. We welcome contributions from AI practitioners, compliance professionals, standards body members, and tool implementers.

Report an Issue

Found a gap in the specification? Report it as a GitHub Issue with the 'spec' label.

Propose a Change

Submit a Pull Request with your proposed change. Include rationale and impact analysis. Changes to normative clauses (shall/should) require two approving reviews.

Implement the Spec

Build a conforming implementation. Add your implementation to the 'implementations' directory via PR.

Join the Discussion

Use GitHub Discussions for questions about interpretation, implementation guidance, and standardization strategy.

Standards Body Roadmap

OVS-AI is being prepared for submission to international standards bodies. National bodies and organizations interested in co-sponsoring are invited to open an issue or contact the maintainers.

ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 42

Draft preparation

WG 3 (Trustworthiness)

New Work Item Proposal for a machine-verifiable AI compliance attestation standard. Complements ISO/IEC 42001 by adding a portable verification layer.

  1. Finalize community draft (current)
  2. Identify national body sponsors (ISO member bodies)
  3. Submit NWIP through a participating P-member
  4. Committee draft review and ballot

NIST AI RMF

Contribution planned

Supplementary Materials

Contribution to the NIST AI RMF supplementary tooling ecosystem. Provides a standardized format for recording and sharing AI compliance assessments under the GOVERN and MAP functions.

  1. Prepare NIST contribution package
  2. Submit via NIST AI RMF feedback channels
  3. Engage with NIST AI working groups

EU AI Office

Contribution planned

Tooling Recommendations

Reference verification protocol for EU AI Act compliance evidence (Articles 6, 9). Enables interoperable compliance records across EU member states.

  1. Align specification with EU AI Act technical standards
  2. Submit through EU AI Office consultation process
  3. Coordinate with notified bodies and conformity assessment
