Re: [cti] Motion for Open Repository for the stix-slider

["Piazza, Rich" <rpiazza@mitre.org>]

I guess if we had in mind going “up and down” from the beginning, we could have designed it that way.  The elevator was written before the existence of the python-stix2 api.

 

I agree with Jason, that the fewer independent STIX utilities we have the better.  I guess if we had a “swiss army knife” approach: validator, elevator, slider, etc, that would be optimal.

 

There isn’t much common code in the slider and elevator at this point – so combining them now would cause a delay in the availability of a sider capability being released.

 

On the other hand, this idea is something to keep in mind for future development.

Not passionate on the topic and I can't tell MITRE what to do, but I kind of agree... would be nice for users to unify it so I don't have to check out and build/update two utils/libraries...

It can't be rolled into STIX elevator? Elevators go up and down....

MITRE has started developing a new Python application called the “slider” which will convert STIX 2.0 content to STIX 1.x content. We hope that others find it useful and will contribute to the project, so we would like to submit it to an OASIS Open Repository.

 

-------------

I move that the TC approve by unanimous consent requesting OASIS to set up an OASIS Open Repository project named cti-stix-slider using the following pieces of information:

 

Purpose Statement: The slider is a Python application which will convert STIX 2.0 content to STIX 1.x content.

Initial Maintainers: Greg Back, Rich Piazza

Open Source License: BSD-3-Clause License

GitHub Name: cti-stix-slider

Short Description: OASIS Open Repository: stix-slider – a Python application to convert STIX 2.0 content to STIX 1.x content

-------------

 

If there have been no objections before Friday November 10 at 21:00 UTC (5:00 PM EDT), and unless Rich Struse has clarified a longer time period for input, I will submit the form [1] to ask OASIS to create the repository. If there have been objections, I will ask Jane to open a ballot.
