Follow-ups from F2F Meeting

[Brent Miller <bamiller@us.ibm.com>]

SDD TC,

Reminders for some of the items we'd
like to get to soon in our upcoming TC calls.

First, please generate the information
about dictionary/profiles that we discussed, namely: All
interested parties should come back with their ideas on what the dictionary
and a profile looks like
Purpose/problem statement of each
names
value, 
granularity
who supplies/who owns/governs
how they’re changed/added to
change control/versioning
mapping definitions
where might conflicts/ambiguity
might be resolved?
relationship definitions (within
and among profiles/dictionary)
how they might be rendered (general
form of delivery)
simple example illustrating all
of this
how the SDD uses/relates to all
of this

Second, we have several proposals that we agreed are needed:
Human-Readable information: have
draft information, need formal proposal with example(s) (Debra)
*** EVERYONE: please send your
feedback on Debra's initial presentation to her ASAP!
Version: have draft information;
need formal proposal(s) with example(s) (Brent, anyone else interested
in generating a proposal)
Package types: have generally agreed-upon
information; need formal proposal with example(s) (Brent/Debra?)
“Custom stuff” (Julia?)
Progress indication
(Need a volunteer)
Please advise as to when you expect
you might have a proposal to present to the TC on one of our upcoming calls.

I'd like to get to these items in the
next couple of weeks or so.

Other suggestions for agenda topics
in the next few weeks are also welcome and hereby solicited.

Thanks.

Regards,
Brent
