Subject: Minutes of Atlantic UBL TC call 25 May 2005
MINUTES OF ATLANTIC UBL TC MEETING 15H00 - 17H00 UTC WEDNESDAY 25 MAY 2005 ATTENDANCE Jon Bosak (chair) Mikkel Brun Tony Coates Mark Crawford Stephen Green Anne Hendry Paul Thorpe STANDING ITEMS Additions to the calendar (http://ibiblio.org/bosak/ubl/calendar.htm) None. Liaison reports None. Subcommittee report: SSC StephenG: Hope to meet tomorrow. Need to look at how things are progressing with the NDR. ACTION: Anne will send a meeting notice. Team report: CodeList The chair conveyed a communication from MartyB asking for clarification of the statement made in the agenda: "It looks like this work is on hold for the moment." JonB explained that he was only observing that other NDR questions are taking priority in the TC right now. NEW OASIS MEMBERSHIP PROCEDURES The chair noted the revised OASIS TC process effective 15 April 2005: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php An effect of this will be a very sharp reduction in our formal voting membership as soon as the chair gets around to reviewing recent meeting attendance. ACTION: JonB to review recent TC call attendance and change the status of members not attending 2/3 of the meetings from "voting" to "nonvoting." TBG17 LIAISON ACTION: MikkelB to check to see whether PeterB can fill the position of UBL liaison to TBG17 and report back on this 8 June. NDR WORK SESSION MarkC and StephenG agree that the proposed recategorization of Reusables will have no effect on NDR, though it will have an impact on the schema generator. MikkelB would like to see the distinction reflected at the schema level as well with the definition of a separate Core schema module. MarkC: This is against the whole concept of CCTS and what CEFACT is trying to do. StephenG: And it would break backwards compatibility. Regarding the proposal to split work items over the three weekly meetings in the new TC call schedule, it was observed by several members that there are serious potential coordination problems inherent in the plan, though we cannot reasonably decline to implement a call for Asia and Europe. Of particular concern is the chair's suggestion that the Europe/Asia call take a lead in sorting through and proposing decisions regarding the current crop of NDR issues. Close coordination and active participation from Asia were identified as the key risk factors in making this arrangement a success. It was decided to try this out for a couple of weeks and see what happens. The fallback is to hold separate calls for NDR, but this would necessarily exclude most Asian input. ACTION: JonB to send a message noting this and asking for active Asian participation. The initial task of the new calls should be putting our NDR issues in focus for review in the Atlantic meetings.
