Other SC reports Lisa Seaburg reported that the LCSC discussed the distribution and are awaiting comments on it. Matt is no longer the chair of CM. 6. Chairs SC issues A. How to put the containerize rule to the UBL comments list. (Arofan to explain) B. Joint meetings between NDR and LCSC. THe Chairs SC met on Mon August 2th. The issue was raised regarding 3 differing opinions on containership. It became clear Gunther's OO, Tims view of methodology and Arofan's containership are in conflict. To help resolve the issues there will be common calls for the LCSC and NDRSC next week. Mavis will receive call details for the joint LCSC call on Tues from Lisa and advise NDR participants. Jon Bosak suggested that NDR propose a containership rule on the UBL-Comment List for discussion. NDR will spend time on wording this rule today and put it into a form for public review. In terms of the joint call next Tues with LCSC Arofan can make it, Michael cannot, Bill won't make it, Eduardo will try, Lisa will make it, Sue probably not, Paul won't and Mavis will try. The NDR SC worked on the wording of the Containership proposal and puts forward the following: The NDR SC advocates the use of containers for the following reasons: * having the flexibility to extend content models using XSD * for efficient use of existing XML tools and technologies (e.g. XPath etc.) * general issues of clarity and usability The NDR SC wishes to put forth the following rule for containership for feedback from participants on the ubl-comment list. This proposal merely touches on part of the wider containership issue. Please note that this diverges from the modelling in the current distribution OP65. A group of like elements constitutes a model element in its own right. The type of the containing element has a relationship to the type of the contained element. The name of the container Type uses the type name of the contained element and adds the word "List". Here is an example of the proposed model: The Order object class has a property called LineItemList. LineItemList is an instance of the object class called LineItemList. A LineItemList contains one or more instances of object class LineItem. The dictionary entry name for this property LineItemList is Order.LineItemList.LineItemList. When the existing naming rules are applied the resultant XML element name would be LineItemList. Consequently, you have the freedom to choose a property term that differs from the representation term to accomodate elements that might be named as follows: Dictionary Entry Name = Order.Accepted.LineItemList with an XML element name of AcceptedLineItemList. Here are the XML instances for these two examples Example 1. <LineItemList> <LineItem...></LineItem...> <LineItem...></LineItem...> <LineItem...></LineItem...> </LineItemList> Note that LineItemList is of type LineItemList. Example 2. <AcceptedLineItemList> <LineItem...></LineItem...> <LineItem...></LineItem...> <LineItem...></LineItem...> </AcceptedLineItemList> Note that here also the type of AcceptedLineItemList is LineItemList. 7. NDR Draft 16 Review Done NDR Spreadsheet Review deferred. 8. Finish embedded documentation decisions deferred 9. Adjourn Y:50
