Subject: Weekly Coordination Call
The 28 January UBL CSC coordination call will take place 8 a.m. California time at the following number: ############################################# STANDING INFORMATION FOR UBL CONFERENCE CALLS U.S. domestic toll-free number: (866)839-8145 Int. access/caller paid number: (865)524-6352 Access code: 5705229 ############################################# As usual, the call is officially a CSC conference, but participation is open to all interested UBL TC members. All CSC members PLEASE try and join. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Issue 2004-0109-01 "We have not yet settled on regular times for either the Pacific calls, Status (2004.01.21) Still open for Pacific Call times. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Issue 2003-1212-01 Code list ownership clarification Discussion (2004.01.21) We believe that this summarizes the forgoing: c confirmed that LCSC produce the code list catalogue, CLSC produces model and XSD template, NDR confirms the template, TTSC instantiates the catalogue using the template. Anne raised the question of the LCSC catalogue. We believe that the LCSC has not had the opportunity to update the catalogue. Ken confirmed that CLSC addresses the catalogue in his work, but is going back to first principles as a precursor. At the moment Ken does not believe that there is a need to add columns to meet requirements. Michael stated that he has raised several questions regarding the code list catalogue. Mark also pointed out that Stephen had raised questions regarding code list content. Michael also mentioned that since we are changing from the previous spreadsheet tool to a new model driven tool, there may be some issues and he has a developer reviewing NDR. Status (2004.01.28) Still Outstanding - We need to reach out to external code list agencies to work with us; could this Discussion (2004.01.09) EbSC might be the right forum. We should also put forward a proposal to TC154 to work with us. --------------------------------------------------------------- Issue 2004-0109-01 Conformance Testing Criteria (Renumbered) - We need to address the question of conformance testing criteria. Discussion (2004.01.09) TTSC can't do conformance testing until we know what normative conformance is. They need clarified detailed definition of normative conformance. EG says that conformance is others conformance to our approach, not UBL conformance. There was a general discussion regarding the differences between customizations of the model and customizations of the XSD and which are appropriate. Decision (2004.01.09) The consensus is that this needs to be decided at the F2F to get everyone involved and we would focus on fostering a discussion thread between now and the F2F to air the issues. Status (2004.01.28) Still Open for fostering discussion thread on conformance ----------------------------------------------------------------- 2003-1212-02 Schema compliance to NDRs Issue We need an owner for "review of schemas to ensure they conform to NDR rules." Outcomes (2003.12.12) The responsibility for reviewing the schemas for NDR compliance clearly belongs to NDR. The key questions are: 1. Who in the NDRSC is actually responsible for doing this? 2. How far are they empowered to make judgments on their own? To put it another way: how and when do they escalate resolution on particular points to a larger group? Assignments (2003.12.12) - NDRSC to identify and empower someone willing and able to perform the NDR compliance function (or report that we have a resource problem). - NDRSC to specify an escalation plan for rule interpretation and conflict resolution. Status (2004.01.28) Michael Dill has assigned developers to review schema and NDRs. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------- 2003-1212-03 Schema validation Issue We need a clear assignment of responsibility for validating schemas and example instances using various XSD validators every time the schemas are modified. Assignment (2003.12.12) TTSC to decide which validators shall be considered authoritative (there should be several) and to fix the responsibility for (1) running validation checks using these validators after each build and (2) reporting to the TC that the build has successfully passed all the checks. Status (2004-01-28) Open --------------------------------------------------------------------- 2003-1212-07 Schema generation Issue I think this refers to the whole question of who's responsible for what going into the next build cycle. But I could be wrong; it's Tim's item. Status (2004-01-28) Open ---------------------------------------------------------------- 2003-1212-08 NDR document Issues - Publication/feedback schedule - Effect of changes on Beta -> FCS Status (2004-01-28) Open --------------------------------------------------------------- 2003-1212-09 Beta/FCS diff tracking Issue How to maintain and communicate thoroughly detailed diffs of changes between Beta and FCS for input to the UBL localization SCs and early implementers Status (2004-01-28) Open ---------------------------------------------------------------- 2003-1212-10 Populating the OASIS Registry with UBL artifacts Issues - What is needed - Who can do it - Deadline 15 January Background See the thread beginning at http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-csc/200312/msg00028.html And further input at http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-csc/200312/msg00055.html Discussion 2004-01-16 Marion is concerned that there has been no activity on this item and would like to see this addressed. If the deadline is self imposed then we need to adjust. If it is an external deadline, then we need to seek an extension. Marion believes that there are two parts 1) should it be done and 2) what are the activities that need to take place to make this happen. Mark to send message to listserve soliciting opinions. Status (2004-01-28) Open ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2003-1212-11 UBL compliance Issue What does it mean to be "UBL compliant"? Status TTSC (which must answer this question for practical reasons) is beginning to analyze the issue and is in the process of producing some use cases for further discussion. I have forwarded their latest thinking on this in separate mail to the TC list. But the question cuts across CMSC, LCSC, CLSC, and NDRSC, and therefore its resolution is a coordination issue. Background See the TTSC preliminary analysis of use cases: http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200312/msg00036.html And the 1.0 Beta "Guidelines For The Customization of UBL Schemas": http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/ubl/lcsc/UBLv1-beta/cm/wd-cmsc-cmguidelines-1.0-beta.html A paper written by the late Michael Adcock is also felt to be relevant to this discussion: http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/ubl/ubl-lcsc/download.php/4364/Context_NewPaper.doc Status (2004-01-28) Open ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2004-0109-01 Code list input from SC4 Issue At the MoU/MG meeting in Detroit 24-25 November 2003, it was noted that ISO TC184/SC4 (industrial and product data) has done a lot of thinking about vocabularies in areas such as materials handling and process control. We should submit our code list catalogue to SC4 via the MoU/MG to see whether SC4 has content to contribute. Relevant links www.tc184-sc4.org www.tc184-sc4.org/About_TC184-SC4/About_SC4_Standards/ The second one gives an overview of the SC4 work. Responsibility This appears to be a joint CLSC and LCSC item.
