OASIS Business Document Naming and Design Rules
  - Ken to prototype proposed augmented extension mechanism first discussed
    at the Fremantle face-to-face:
    - add an extension point at the beginning of *every* ABIE, not just the
      document ABIEs
    - ticket created to track online discussion:
      https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL-174
  - working extensible UBL 2.1 schemas link posted to the ticket
    - Martin notified and he is contacting his industry colleagues who need it
  - 2018-02-22 discussion preserved for more discussion:
    - concerns based on real-world implementations of UBL where, without prior
      experience, and who do not have a data model that matches UBL, then UBL
      is very complex
    - what has been seen are very grave examples of claiming conformance but
      just throwing it into an extension rather than using the appropriate
      data element from UBL because it is easy to do so
    - maybe even up to 70% of the document shows up in the extension rather
      than in standard business objects
    - adding more extension points makes it more attractive to put one's data
into extensions for one of many reasons other than conformance (laziness,
      time-lines, understanding, etc.)
    - perhaps better documentation would make conformance better
    - the argument for is that there may be more uptake of UBL if
      implementers are able to more easily add what they need where they
      need it
    - one cannot prevent bad use of UBL but would more extension points
      promote more bad use?
    - proposed approach is intended to contextualize extensions where they
      belong rather than grouping them all up-front and having to determine
      where they apply
  - first comments received (on the ticket) regarding extensible ABIEs:

    https://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=62586

 - JSON rules in the OASIS Business Document Naming and Design Rules
  - active tickets:  https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=13472
  - the TC continues to invite public comment on the latest versions of
    these specifications until such time as we agree to progress the documents
    to their next steps in the process:

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/Business-Document-NDR/v1.1/Business-Document-NDR-v1.1.html
http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/UBL-2.1-JSON/v1.0/UBL-2.1-JSON-v1.0.html

  - awaiting TC Administration feedback regarding:

      https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201705/msg00000.html

    - as this is a facet of the public perception of an OASIS specification,
      the OASIS TC Administration not only needs to be involved, but they are
      the ones to do the heavy lifting with IANA with an amalgam of our
      needs and their needs, so we have to work with them and through them
      - ticket created for tracking:

        https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/TCADMIN-2587

  - comment posted for review from Tradeshift
    - https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201709/msg00000.html
  - comment posted for review from Australia (though it is an indirect link
    and not properly posted for commenting), and it appears to be observations
    and not a specific comment for action
    - https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201709/msg00001.html
  - Ken has begun work on the changes but is stalled looking for a JSON
    schema processor for Draft-7 of the json-schema specification


JIRA tickets
  - available filters:
       - UBL 2.x - https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=12972

       - TCAdmin - https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=13070

     by how they are described to be used as categories:
<https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:components-panel>https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:components-panel

       in the summary filter

   - status and resolution values:
     - NEW - the issue has been created but not yet agreed to be in
             consideration or not for the development distribution
           - in order for the issue to become active work for the committee
             the new ticket must be changed to OPEN or it will not be seen
             in the "to do" filter
           - the other option on a new ticket is to change it to DEFERRED
           - please remember to look at the open filter to ensure visibility:
             https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=12972
     - OPEN - the issue is in consideration for the development distribution
            - keep the issue OPEN when assigning to Ken for incorporation
            - please remember to add a comment regarding expectations whenever
              you assign an OPEN ticket to another person for any action
     - RESOLVED + Applied - the issue is incorporated in test but not released
     - RESOLVED + Fixed - the issue is incorporated in a working draft version

     - RESOLVED + No Action - considered as no action for any distribution
     - RESOLVED + Cannot Reproduce - considered as no action for distribution
     - APPLIED + Fixed - the issue is included in a public review (record the
                         availability of the disposition once review opened)
     - DEFERRED - the issue is not in consideration for any minor revision
                - please remember to use this when creating new tickets for
                  backwards-incompatible changes
    - see also the discussion on the status workflows here:
       https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201709/msg00000.html

   - members please note to discuss ticket issues as comments to the ticket so
     that we can audit the discussion when making decisions about the ticket,
     without having to find the discussion on the main mail list

   - to find all of the OASIS TC Administration tickets related to UBL, use
     the https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=13070 filter
