Subject: RE: [tgf] RE: [FWD: RE: RE: [XMLWG] Transformational Government Framework Primer Version 1.0 has been published as an approved OASIS Committee Note]
|
Hi All, I would like to understand
more about the synergy(ies) that is foreseen here. I can understand (I think)
how a particular administration could document a TGF plan using StratML and can
see that could have some benefit for them and, if they elect to use the StratML
portal, the possibility of some comparison between different TGF activities.
However, this seems to me to be more a matter for them than OASIS. Also the
fact that they will all have different start points, objectives, tactics, etc
means that any ‘standard’ plan would need a lot of customisation to fit a given
situation. Perhaps we could have a presentation on this topic at a future TGF
TC meeting? Regards Nig Nig Greenaway Government Division FUJITSU Lovelace Road, Bracknell,

[mailto:peter@peterfbrown.com] Guys: This is a great conversation, thank you all for the
contributions thus far. As you will no doubt be aware, and in common with my organisations’
practices, posting to an OASIS TC’s mailing list is only possible by a member
of that committee. As such, I’m copying this thread, together with my comments,
to the OASIS TGF TC list, for all our members to see and chip in too… Also, I’ll follow up with OASIS staff regarding the best way to
pursue cooperation with AIIM and ANSI on this. Best regards, Peter From: Owen

for the endorsement, Art. One
small clarification: Thus far during the development, piloting,
proof-of-concept phase, more than 700 plans, comprising nearly 12,000
objectives, have been rendered in StratML format. http://stratml.hyperbase.com/statistics.html
Owen From: Arthur
Colman [mailto:colman@drybridge.com] Good
day! I’ve
been involved with the StratML project for some time and have been quite
impressed with the process that StratML has taken to testing the
appropriateness of the structures with actual Strategic Plans – well over a
hundred strategic plans have been modeled and are actively maintained in the
StratML format by the committee participants. In reviewing the TGF primer I can
see where the scope of work that StratML has embraced (Strategic Plans and
Performance Reports) fits into the TGF model. It is quite rewarding to see that
two different perspectives can result in a consistent view of this process. It is
incredibly important that StratML and TGF continue along the path of
convergence and the adoption of best-of-breed approaches. I want to add my
voice to Owen’s suggestion, “It would be good if OASIS and
AIIM could establish a partnership to pursue potential synergies between the
TGF and StratML”. The synergies are very real. Best
regards, Art

[mailto:peter@peterfbrown.com] John, Owen, all: I’d agree with John that if there is to be a collaborative or
cooperative effort, it would be best to take the to-be-completed TGF Standard
rather than the draft Primer. At this stage, I won’t respond to any of the particular content
issues raised. My one concern would be to be sure that there are appropriate
agreements in place between OASIS, AIIM or others that provide us all with the
‘security blanket’ to protect our respective IPR, copyrights, etc. Owen: As regards StratML, could you give us all a heads-up on: -
Who and how, beyond AIIM, is StratML being promoted? What could
the TGF TC do to improve this? -
How is the relationship of StratML with ANSI managed (for info,
OASIS is an accredited organisation within ANSI)? *** AIIM also is an ANSI
accredited standards development organization and has been one since March 15,
1985. Additionally, AIIM holds secretary roles at both the TC and SC level for
one of the ISO committees focused on document management which StratML
supports. -
StratML is explicitly an XML representation – what modelling or
representation has been done ‘upstream’ of the concepts covered (eg UML,
concept maps, etc.)? -
Who is using StratML or providing use-cases, etc that help give
you feedback as regards what is needed? Sorry, lots of questions but many of us on the OASIS side of
this discussion are probably not familiar with the work Cheers, Peter From: John
Borras [mailto:johnaborras@yahoo.co.uk] Owen Apologies
for the delay in responding to your note. As you will know from our
previous exchanges we are keen to develop a relationship with StratML, the only
question being how and when to avoid unnecessary work on both our sides.
With that in mind perhaps it would help if I clarified our plans. As
David pointed out we have now published version 1.0 of our TGF Primer.
This is essentially a communication tool and was a quick way we saw of getting
the message out about the TGF. Now that we have that document available
we are proceeding apace to take the relevant pieces of it and turn it into a
traditional standard with conformance clauses etc. That standard will
also include machine readable material, possibly in RDF format but that’s
yet to be decided. Peter Brown is our Editor and is exploring options on
this aspect as we speak. So
going back to my opening comment about avoiding unnecessary work it might be
better if we looked towards including the OASIS TGF Standard, when it becomes
available, in a properly configured StratML format rather than spend a
lot of time on the Primer which is and will always remain a text based
communication document. I’d
welcome your views on this suggestion please. Regards John Borras Chair OASIS TGF
