The principal objectives of the meeting were to review the TOG proposal for completing the delivery of the initial infrastructure and DEXes, and supporting the ongoing development of DEXes.   

1.	Welcome by Chair
	Chair welcomed all who were attending, and apologised for the late change of dial-in arrangements, due to the change in host from RR to BAE Systems, following a medical emergency.

3.	Report of Technical Oversight Group (Tor Arne Irgens)
Review of status and issues, including:
	Tor Arne Irgens reviewed the slides developed at the Technical Oversight Group (TOG) Meeting 10 12 May 2006, which proposed a workplan for the DEX Project.  The notes below are a summary of the discussion surrounding these two documents.
	See DEX Project Proposal on OASIS web site for a presentation on the proposed way forward.
	See wokplanv6 on OASIS web site for a detailed activity plan with estimated hours.
	Intent is to publish business DEX based on the generic DEX
	Possible to do in 12 months, but not less than 4 months
	Can start on Phase I work now and work some activities in parallel.  Will build on work already done
	Proposing project to start on 1 September 2006
	TOG Support Management includes procedures for activities such as how to handle ballot comments, requests for external support (training, consultancy services etc.). Assume discussed in Kick-off workshop, followed by documentation and approval. Requirements for support tool (DEXLib may not be sufficient for management and maintenance)
	Configuration management (CM) crucial to project.  Need to develop CM tools.
	Need to develop test data and examples.  May request members/implementers to assist in developing simple test data
	Phase 3 covers development of Web Services based on what we have already.
	Web Services more than just reference data access.  Should correspond to templates.
	Plan to release Web Services into public domain
	Estimate for Phase 3 is about 6-8 months elapsed and between the Phase I and Phase II efforts for man-hours (1180  6700 man-hours)
	Phase 5 activity is intended to address developments in TC184/SC4 with AP 209, AP 210, and AP 233 that potentially affect PLCS modules.  SEDS submitted to revise PLCS modules.
	Phases 3, 4 and 5 could be undertaken in parallel with the initial development phases, given sufficient resources from projects
	Jim Colson willing to serve as US DoD Steering Group member provided it is cleared at the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD)
	It was agreed to set-up a group of those willing to put in resources to get job done.  This is the steering group, which would act as a consortium under the TC
	Method of publication needs to be more fully discussed to ensure a viable strategy in compliance with OASIS rules.  It is a much more complex subject with many impacts if not done correctly.
	Norwegian Defense would like to see workplan put in place and would like to see project start as soon as possible.
	MODs (CDIP  Cooperation on Defense Implementation of PLCS) meeting in Oslo 15 June to agree on way forward and discussed funding issues
	MODs have categorized interest through Low/Medium/High in spreadsheet.  Low = no interest in funding; High = much interest in getting the activity completed.  The MODs intend to use this in trying to determine funding priorities
	Challenged to identify resources for Phases I and II.and beyond.
