	Good work and progress on areas where resources are assigned
	No work where resources are not assigned and that is bad!

	Not much response from request for workplan hours consumed.  Secretariat to send out additional request for information in early September
Action item 33/1: Members please respond to request for hours consumed (All)
	Publication issues 
	Good news from OASIS on publication issues.  Discussion with OASIS clarified that there were no significant issues with naming conventions or templates, and that the document would not need to be reformatted.  We can put an OASIS cover sheet on a DEXLib snapshot and publish as a version.  Can add additional DEXs and change version.  Must be under configuration control. 
	An initial release has been developed, it is under review and will be sent to OASIS for comment
Action 3/2: Rob Bodington to review OASIS template for use with DEX (Complete)
Action 9/9: Howard Mason to raise publication issues with Mary McRae (Howard Mason) (Complete)
Action 9/12: Rob Bodington to compile sample of DEX format and run through OASIS for approval (Rob Bodington)

	There will be a set of reference data published with DEXLib.  Making changes to DEXLib to accommodate reference data publishing with OASIS standard.
	LOGSA  have a lot of comments on the Help files.  Will forward to Chair, Secretariat, and Project lead.
The following DEXlib enhancements were reported
	A tool that makes it easier to create a dex/template is under development  it replaces the scripts.  We are using it to provide a GUI to drive the main functionality. A beta has been released
	Long form generation 
o	Each DEX has an associated schema derived from the templates used in the DEX
	P28 XML Schema generation of the long form
	Templates  uniqueness rules have been implemented
	Business DEXs and Standard DEXs are now aligned  in test at the moment
	Number of usage tools developed allowing you to see what entities are used by what templates and various other combinations
	Configuration management tool is in development
o	This will allow tracking of releases of DEXlib for publication
	A number of other bugs/issues have been addressed

 
4.	Report of Technical Oversight Group (Tor Arne Irgens) 
	Difficult for Steering Group teleconferences due to scheduling conflicts.  Next call To be determined.
	Issue - inclusion of explanatory entities in templates
Action item 32/1: TOG Teleconference for resolving any outstanding issues (Tor Arne Irgens) (carried forward)
	Issue - requirements for update to PLCS standard
	TOG inquired of the status of a new edition for AP239.  Currently scheduled for ISO systematic review toward the end of 2008 unless SC4 reviews earlier.  Rob Bodington submitting some SEDS issues, but no budgeted plan for creating new edition or technical corrigendum.  Need to ensure compliance with published AP and that DEXs and AP are in synchronization.  It is a question of timing between an updated ISO standard and release of a DEX.  Proposed changes to AP239 should be discussed at the SC4 Dallas meeting.  Ninety percent of SEDS are related to select extensions only for AP239.  Need list of agreed SEDS against AP239.
Action item 30/3: Develop and submit issues/SEDS to SC4 (Rob Bodington)
	Have established a STEPMOD mirror site on SC4ONLINE that is working well.  Users with an SC4ONLINE user name and password can download modules.
