Feedback requested on draft proposal for eTMF standard related to CMIS

[Robin Cover <robin@oasis-open.org>]

CMIS TC members are invited to review a draft TC proposal

for a new OASIS Technical Committee that seeks to

develop a "global eTMF standard", viz., a new

Electronic Trial Master File Standard (eTMF).

The draft TC proposal "Statement of Purpose" is copied out

below [6].

The draft proposal (not yet formally submitted to OASIS)

cites CMIS as relevant to the eTMF interop goals:

... the eTMF Core specification (eTMF Data Model) will

seek to support "Interoperability with the Content Management

Interoperability Services (CMIS) standard" ... ["eTMF Data

Model and Content Management Interoperability Services

(CMIS) standard integration points"] 

We would like to know of interest in this work by members

of the CMIS TC, and particularly, if CMIS TC member

companies or individuals want to consider support for

the OASIS eTMF initiative as a TC co-proposer.

References are provided below.

Please send me email if you are interested (by Friday

2013-10-11 if possible), or if you have questions/feedback

about the proposal.  Email: robin@oasis-open.org

[6] [Draft "The purpose of the OASIS eTMF Standard Technical

Committee (TC) is to define machine readable formats for

BioPharma clinical trial master file content

interoperability and data exchange to include: 1) An

eTMF content classification model comprised of a 

standards-based vocabulary and content classification

ontology; 2) A flexible set of eTMF content

classification rules and policies; 2) An eTMF Data

Model and format for the interoperable exchange of

electronic trial master file information for the

clinical trials domain, whereby eTMF content can be

exchanged and viewed in major web browsers without

the need for an electronic document management system

application." from [2] above
