My interpretation of the documentation provided on
the referenced page is that the requirement is not simply "...required to use
the gjxdm..." "Compliance" as defined on the same page includes how the
schemas will be constructed using the subset generation tool and extended using
the documented "rules" (presumable DTDs are not "compliant"). I'm
interested in knowing if others agree or disagree with my interpretation of
the definition and if you agree, how you feel about this
definition of compliance.

The following information came to my attention
recently:
In the new page on the OJP IT web site that talks
about Implementation guidelines for the GJXDM, there is a subtle but
significant announcement at the bottom of the page announcing that OJP has
adopted a new special condition that will be applied to any grant that has
the potential of using XML--all such grants will be required to use the
GJXDM and to publish the schema to the central OJP repository. The
announcement can be read at http://it.ojp.gov/topic.jsp?topic_id=138.
The Global JXDM Schema Subset Generation Tool which is
at http://justicexml.gtri.gatech.edu/subset_tool.html is now
available for public release. This tool provides developers with the
ability to create Global JXDM schema subsets based on the previously published
"Rules for Schema
Subsets" (http://justicexml.gtri.gatech.edu/rules_for_schema_subsets.html)
. In addition to giving developers the ability to create schema subsets,
the SSGT incorporates and replaces the Global JXDM Viewer, which
was designed to assist developers in searching the data model
itself. A page was created on the Global Justice XML Data Model
Web site titled "Organizations Utilizing the Global Justice XML Data
Model" (http://www.it.ojp.gov/topic.jsp?topic_id=107), which gives users
the ability to share their Global JXDM projects with others and to see
how others are using the Global JXDM. Individuals who submit new projects
to this page are now able to submit their projects and make future
updates on-line. Please note that all new projects and updates submitted
will be subject to a review and approval process before they actually post
to the Web site. A document with directions for this process is
available at http://www.it.ojp.gov/documents/OUTGJXDMdirections.pdf
.
Individuals who register to provide projects to the
"Organizations Utilizing the Global JXDM" page are automatically registered
for other Web site "Member" services for the Office of Justice
Programs Information Technology Initiatives, Global Justice Information
Sharing Initiative, Justice Standards Clearinghouse, and Global Justice XML
Data Model Web sites. Registered users can access these features from
any page of any of the Web sites that has a "Member" button in the Web
site banner. Accessing the "Member" button will provide access to
a "Returning User Login" page. After the user enters their "User
Name," "Password," and accesses the "Log In" button on this page, they will
be taken to the "Index" page for the Web site they are currently
viewing. On that "Index" page, they will notice that the "Member" button
has been replaced by a Web site banner menu. Accessing the "My Profile"
button in this Web site banner menu will provide a "Manage User Profile"
page that provides a listing of "Member" services. Registered users can
proceed by following the directions for each option provided. These options
include "Update Personal Information," "Change Password," "Select/Update
IT Initiatives, Global, and Global JXDM E-mail Notification
Preferences," "Select/Update JSC E-mail Notification Preferences," and
"Return to Browsing the Site."
Individuals who register to provide
projects to the "Organizations Utilizing the Global JXDM" page are
automatically registered and encouraged to provide entries for the Justice
Standards Clearinghouse (JSC) and to provide comments to current JSC
entries. For more information please visit the JSC page at
http://it.ojp.gov/topic.jsp?topic_id=133.
