Item Discussed

 

1. Sample Process

- Andy commented that there may be a need to include Carrier in the sample process. Tim mentioned that what we’re trying to describe is representative of a typical business flow. He commented that perhaps even the Consignor may not be appropriate as previously there was a comment from our Japanese counterpart that even the Consignee could initiate the process.

- Tim updated that in the latest extended sample process, he had included the Transport Status and other documents like Certificate of Origin and Forwarding Instruction. However, he commented that for the Transport Status, it is not directly linked with the other documents.

- Regarding the population of the XML instance, Kama commented that the content of the XML instance for the documents have to be synchronized. TSC needs the XML instance for the Order from PSC. Tim mentioned that Sylvia made a similar comment that the content needs to be synchronized between PSC & TSC.

- Tim updated that there are currently three reference sample XML instances which we can use as a basis. This includes (1) UBL 1, (2) SBS & (3) Danish government samples. PSC will have to decide which one it wants to use. Tim updated that PSC would meet next Monday and make a decision.

-  Kama asked when the XML sample instances need to be ready. Tim mentioned that it would be needed after the Montreal meeting, i.e end August 2006

- Kama suggested that all TSC members review the extended sample process and feedback by the end of the week.

 

2. Presentation

- Andy suggested that we work with other TC members to develop the stylesheet

- Tim mentioned that this will be driven by the HISC. Ken Holman would be handling it. He noted that the XSLT would not form part of the UBL 2.0 deliverable. Tim also mentioned that the XSLT would be copyrighted by Ken Holman.

- Andy mentioned that the presentation could be based on UNLK, which Tim agreed that if there are UNLK for a particular document, then it would be good to use the UNLK presentation.

-

3. PRD2 Sanity3 package

- Tim updated that the latest draft has been approved by OASIS for the 2^nd public review. He mentioned that the XML schemas are unlikely to be changed any further.

- He mentioned that any comments receive, if it doesn’t break the schema, it will be deferred to UBL 2.1

- Tim mentioned that the TC focus now should be on the supplementary package delivery since we have already completed the PRD2 Sanity3 package

 

4. Any other matter

- Tim updated that he’ll be passing thru Singapore in early September and suggested to meet Kama to discuss any UBL matter.

 

Action Item

- Kama to suggest suitable date/time to meet Tim in Singapore.

- PSC to provide the sample XML instance for the Order document.
