UBL TC MEETING IN STOCKHOLM 24-28 SEPTEMBER 2007

   See the Pacific call minutes.

ATLANTIC ACTION ITEMS FROM MANHATTAN

   ACTION: GKH to write up the "Candidate Decision Regarding Code
   List Support" as amended 10 May 2007 (see minutes referenced
   above).

      Pending.

   ACTION: JB to minute the one nonsubstantive spreadsheet error
   found so far (the entry for BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA in
   CountryIdentificationCode-2.0.gc is broken) and send a message
   to this effect to ubl-dev.

      Pending; notes on this from a previous Atlantic call:

      /============================================================
      | GKH: The BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA item is a code list error,
      | not a spreadsheet error.
      | 
      | AS: The Locode file is missing a subdivision column,
      | resulting in (for example) multiple locations named
      | "Columbus" with no way to disambiguate them.
      | 
      | Summary of the tasks to be done under this heading:
      | 
      |  - BOSNIA error: Note publicly and also include in code list
      |    revision.
      | 
      |  - Waybill spreadsheet: cell A4 has the UBLName "false";
      |    this should be the word "CustomizationID".  Disposition:
      |    probably a candidate for "approved erratum"
      |    (nonsubstantive, because this is done correctly in the
      |    schema).
      | 
      |  - Code lists to update in the code list revision: Locode,
      |    rec20 (Units of Measure), rec24 (Transport Status).
      \============================================================

      and add the typo in UBL-CommonLibrary-2.0.xls, Q99.

      Update (further typos):

         http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200707/msg00026.html

      See discussion of spreadsheet revision in this week's
      Pacific call minutes.

   ACTION: MG to investigate the impact of GKH's proposed
   namespace-based versioning mechanism on the NDR.  AGREED that
   if no critical problems are found in this investigation, we
   will adopt GKH's proposal for namespace-based versioning, as
   contained in

      http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=23654

      Continuing to track this; BH is looking at this as well.

TRACKING ITEM

   We need a decision from the OASIS CLR TC regarding the transfer
   of the code list methodology out of the UBL TC before we can
   begin issuing code list support updates.

TC CON CALL SCHEDULE

   We're back to our regular weekly meeting schedule.

2008 TC MEETING SCHEDULE
