    Subject: Content delivery estimates urgently needed


    Hello Folks,
    
    I need the content delivery estimates requested in the message
    below as soon as possible.

       Hello UBL TC,
    
       In beginning to revise the UBL 2.0 schedule, it's becoming clear
       that we're not going to hit our target of 7 November to begin
       public review.  Partly this is because OASIS administration has
       not proven as quick to process submissions as we originally
       thought (as shown by the delay in getting the SBS into review),
       but mostly it's because the content work has gone more slowly than
       we had hoped.  Working backward week by week from the beginning of
       the public review, the CD cycle looks something like this:
    
          Week N-9  Finish content definition and essential prose
          Week N-8  Approve content and begin schema generation
          Week N-7  Validate schemas
          Week N-6  Assemble candidate Committee Draft
          Week N-5  Q/A candidate Committee Draft
          Week N-4  Revise candidate Committee Draft
          Week N-3  Ballot Committee Draft
          Week N-2  Submit approved Committee Draft to OASIS
          Week N-1  OASIS processing (best case)
          Week N    Begin public review
    
       In order to have been able to begin public review 7 November, we
       would have to have completed phase 1 content work last week, and
       that didn't happen.  So we must revise the schedule.
    
       To do that, we need firm estimates of when the phase 1 content
       work is going to be finished.  (Note that this doesn't mean
       perfect, it just means ready for the first public review.)
       Specifically, we need the PSC and TSC to provide short-term
       timelines for completion of their first set of spreadsheets in a
       form ready for schema generation.  It would be best to have those
       estimates this week if possible.
    
       Jon
