SCHEDULE REVIEW

    Revised draft schedule is at

       http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200905/msg00005.html

    TSC (AS): Began disposition of issues in Rome and have
    continued clarifying the issues from FIH/EFM experience and new
    inputs from Italy.  Freightwise will be contributing new
    aggregates and attributes and perhaps as many as four new
    document types.

       ACTIONS (schedule revisions): Put disposition of issues in
       columns E and F (move TSC schedule out); for Freightwise,
       work backward from common deliverables and populate the new
       Freightwise row.

    SGTG (GKH): See these posts:

       http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200905/msg00002.html
       http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200905/msg00003.html

    The two schema modules CCTS_CCT_SchemaModule-2.0.xsd and
    UnqualifiedDataTypeSchemaModule-2.0.xsd reflect the distinction
    between abstract CC data types and concrete XML data types.
    Both of these schema modules came from UN/CEFACT, MC's response
    to the contrary notwithstanding.  Both are missing a number of
    supplementary components specified in CCTS 2.01.  These need to
    be included in the 2.1 version of the UDT module in order to
    satisfy YK's use case:

       http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200904/msg00016.html

    AS: (Skypes the latest D08B schemas to GKH)

    GKH: The latest UDT from UN/CEFACT is different from the UDT
    used in UBL 2.0; the CCTS metadata in our UDT is labled 1.0,
    whereas the metadata in the D08B version is labeled 2.01.  But
    the D08B UDT still does not contain attributes reflecting
    supplementary components of all the core component types.  For
    example, it is missing the Quantity type supplementary
    component with the DEN "Quantity Unit. Code List
    Agency. Identifier" (see page 100 of the A4 version of CCTS
    2.01).  Since the current UDT is insufficient for our purposes,
    we will have to create our own instantiation of the CCTS 2.01
    Core Components as XML data types.

       ACTION: GKH to create a UBL 2.1 UDT that instantiates all
       the supplementary components of CCTS 2.01.

       AGREED (pending further discussion in the Atlantic call) to
       share this with UN/CEFACT for possible use in 09A.

    NDR (JB): Have fallen far behind and may have to continue
    without the requested new examples.  Schedule has been updated
    to reflect this.

    Customization Guidelines (JB): In public review.

    IDD Vol. 1 (JB): OASIS has instructed that we need to ballot CD
    before balloting CS.  Have retrofitted a CD from the candidate
    CS and am now waiting on OASIS to upload the files to the
    appropriate CD URLs.

    IDD Vol. 2 (JB): German translation is finished; waiting on
    Danish for public review.  ACTION: JB to ping Denmark.

    Security SC (JB): ACTION: JB to ping SC.

    UN/CEFACT: For discussion in Atlantic call.

2009 TC MEETING SCHEDULE

    17-21 August 2009 in Montréal, colocated with Balisage the
