MINUTES OF PACIFIC UBL TC MEETING 00:30 - 02:30 UTC TUESDAY 25 APRIL 2006 ATTENDANCE Tim McGrath(acting chair) Stephen Green Sylvia Webb Apologies: G. Ken Holman STANDING ITEMS Additions to the calendar: http://ibiblio.org/bosak/ubl/calendar.htm None. Liaison report: TaxXML TC SW: Face-to-face meeting Thursday. Has posted them a question about Parties from issues list. Liaison report: ebBP TC SG: several promotional events as part of OASIS Interoperability Forum. UBL will be used in demos. TM: Crimson Logic will contact ebBP about BPSS 2.0 Implementation Verification Statements Subcommittee report: SBSC SG: Attention moves to SBS 2.0. SBS 2.0 should be backward compatible with SBS 1.0 or as close as possible. ACTION: SG will contact Joe Chuisano (US DoT project) regarding draft 2.0 SBS Despatch Advice. Liaison report: UN/CEFACT SW: As well as clarifying the strategy for UBL implementors (such as Government Agencies) we should also inform the OASIS TCs looking to UBL for their XML solution (such as Tax XML) and advise them of the impact of this arrangement. We suggest at least an FAQ that addresses the ideas for harmonization. ACTION: Tim to draft ideas for this. SG: Expressed concern about UBL participants being able to afford participation in CEFACT meetings. It was felt that without attendance the influence of members is much less. Logistically it will hard (without sponsorship) to attend face-to-face events. There may be a false expectation from CEFACT that UBL members are able to travel to these meetings. ACTION: Tim to comunicate this concern to CEFACT . AGREED: Overall we three are comfortable to proceed with the CEFACT proposal, given the concensus of the whole TC. Subcommittee report: PSC SW: PSC review of issues is moving on. Several meetings over the past week. Mark Leitch is now able to participate again. Stephen has added his written comments to the issues spreadsheet. No chnages to the spreadsheets will be made until the TC has review the proposed changes. We plan to have the issues list and action plan ready for the TC by the week commencing May 1st (next week). To enable meaningful work in Brussels we will need to update the spreadsheets during week commencing May 8th. It was noted that Peter B. would be on Ken's training course that week and the PSC will consider that in their planning. The TSC will need their proposed dispositions completed by next week. Subcommittee report: TSC TM: Missed the meeting last week and so the TSC has a lot to do this week. Codelist report: JB is still testing the proposed code list methodology. All required metadata is now in genericode model. We had a long discussion about how we should now implement the new code list methodology in UBL 2.0. (see http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200604/msg00060.html) We agreed that we will need a qualified data type spreadsheet (and schema) that defines the metadata for each code list for which UBL is recommending a set of values. This meta data includes the Code List. Identifier . CCTS definies this as " to identify the URL of a source that defines the set of currently approved permitted values". This should contain the location of the genericode document for that code list. Because we wish to enable implementors to customize these values we should make the codeListIdentifier attribute "default" and not "fixed" (as it currently is). This mean implementors can change this attribute to reference their own genericode document without impacting other schemas. Therefore, we would like to propose an action plan to the TC... 1. SG: will update the previous Qualified Datatypes spreadsheet with the codes required for UBL 2.0 and create a package with the genericode documents created by Tony from the UBL 1.0 code list set. 2. TM: will add the new Transportation code lists to this package and update the QDT spreadsheet. May need some assistance from Tony in creating the genericode document for the values. 3. UBL NDR: may need to review the "fixed" attribute issue for CCTS suplementary components. 4. SW: will ensure that EDIFIX is able to create the QDT schema. 5. The code list team should help prepare a "best practice" guide to help implementors to both use the UBL 2.0 code list mechanism and to customize their code lists if necessary. ACTION: Tim to propose this issue become an agenda item on the Atlantic call this week. Review of Atlantic call SW: Do we have a backup plan in case Montreal cannot be arranged? Schedule review http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200602/msg00016.html See above (under PSC report) ACTION ITEM REVIEW ACTION: JB to ask MB about input on CL metadata. Closed (TonyC has incorporated into the genericode model). ACTION: SW to remind Howard Mason about input from ISO TC184. Closed. ACTION: JB to update the TC web site as soon as 1.0 SBS goes to ballot. Done. ACTION: JB to find meeting facilities in Montreal for August meeting. "Have sent mail to Ed Buchinski; no answer yet. GKH and SW will try some contacts." Status: GKH has put out some inquiries. ACTION: JB to user-test GKH's draft 0.4 (see mail of 20 Feb with pointer to the repository). In progress. The first draft of an "idiot's guide" to implementing the codelist methodology demo on an XP machine has been completed but needs further work. ACTION: JB to fit this into the support package schedule: add lines for PSC example instances, TSC example instances, 2.0 SBS for transport, UBP 2 for procurement, UBP 2 for transport. Pending. -- regards tim mcgrath phone: +618 93352228 postal: po box 1289 fremantle western australia 6160 web: http://www.portcomm.com.au/tmcgrath
