Subject: UBL.xml.org idea for UBL IDD development
Good morning fellow UBL localization committee members, Following an idea presented at the UBL face-to-face in Montréal, I have talked with OASIS regarding using UBL.xml.org to promote the development of the UBL International Data Dictionary. Because a localization is a translation of UBL English-language semantics, thereby not being normative to the UBL IDD, the intellectual property rights details are different than for normative work. I proposed that a publicly-accessible version of each spreadsheet for a given incomplete language be posted to Google Spreadsheets. Any community member wishing to contribute definitions can contact the UBL Editorial Board Chairman (me for now) supplying their Google Docs account name. They are then designated a "collaborator" for the spreadsheets and can make their changes at their convenience. Any community member can also trigger a set of spreadsheets in an as yet unstarted language, hopefully generating sufficient interest to beget a new localization subcommittee. At some point the spreadsheets for a particular language become full. It is then time for the corresponding UBL Localization Subcommittee to patriate the completed work. They do this by forming the committee (if not already formed), taking ownership of it and marshalling it through established UBL and OASIS procedures for submitting and publishing a new IDD contribution. To this end, I have posted public versions of the template stylesheets distributed by Roberto in UBL-2.0-Errata-01-IDD-Rev.2.zip ~ July 21, 2008. The list of links is below. These in particular are not to be edited ... but they can be used as exemplars of what a particular language would look like. It also gives candidate contributors an idea of the scope of the work involved. Please let me know if you have any questions. Meanwhile, I'll start working on the Forum post for UBL.xml.org. . . . . . . . . . . . . .
