30-day Committee Specification Public Review Draft 02 ended December 7: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201711/msg00002.html https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201711/msg00003.html http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/csprd02-UBL-2.2/UBL-2.2.html - CSPRD02 disposition of comments worksheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1yNx2UrmZK2EBF2UQRPVykZ-WpKEiwRz321QOsue0pkA/view - a number of issues were added on the last day of the public review, some of which appear to require another 15-day review when done - pre-award needs will meet after next week's call to discuss the issues - Ken added a new candidate to add with the pre-award additions (or postponed if it is considered to late and not important enough): https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL-168 - AGREED - Ken will summarize the meeting discussion of this ticket and incorporate the changes in time for CSPRD03 - an interesting comment was received just before the November 8 meeting: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201711/msg00001.html - Ken will draft the committee note approach to resolving this for extension writers - countdown to standardization outlined in our UBL Governance document: http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/UBL-Governance/v1.0/cn01/UBL-Governance-v1.0-cn01.html#S-THE-PATHWAY-TO-STANDARDIZATION -

60-day public review of COS1 over end of May - 14-day OASIS member ballot at beginning of June - late June UBL 2.2 becomes an OASIS Standard - mid-May we will begin the ISO revision process for ISO/IEC 19845 - current thoughts are we will wait until 2.3 before updating 19845 - we never know what the TC Admin workload will be at any given step to know if any steps will be delayed - we are already 6 months from our original objective of end of 2017 UBL 2.3 - a posting has been made to the mail archives so that it can be cited in other correspondence: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201702/msg00006.html - Peter managing requirements for transportation documents - Kees managing requirements for post-award documents - Ole managing requirements for pre-award documents - Roberto managing requirements for party information documents - Kenneth and Todd managing requirements for payments and finance documents - based on the UBL 2.2 schedule outlined above, changes could be started for UBL 2.3 consideration and testing at the end of October 2017 - we are on schedule for this once UBL 2.2 CSPRD02 is out for public review - we should further consider the idea raised earlier of splitting UBL into different normative parts UBL Payments and Finance Subcommittee - upcoming face-to-face during the Exchange Summit Americas conference http://www.exchange-summit.com/exa/miami May 8-9, 2017 in Miami, Florida Outreach and communications - work progressing on analyzing current communication channels https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-adoption/201710/msg00001.html UBL Transportation Subcommittee - new document types discussed at the face-to-face JSON Task Group - the TC continues to invite public comment on the latest versions of these specifications until such time as we agree to progress the documents to their next steps in the process: http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/Business-Document-NDR/v1.1/Business-Document-NDR-v1.1.html http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/UBL-2.1-JSON/v1.0/UBL-2.1-JSON-v1.0.html - awaiting TC Administration feedback regarding: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201705/msg00000.html - as this is a facet of the public perception of an OASIS specification, the OASIS TC Administration not only needs to be involved, but they are the ones to do the heavy lifting with IANA with an amalgam of our needs and their needs, so we have to work with them and through them - ticket created for tracking: https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/TCADMIN-2587 - Ken will be creating a new working draft to remove nothing but add some guidelines regarding those extensions to UBL that are specified using CCTS (per the scope of the work product), recognizing there is no attempt to transliterate arbitrary XML into JSON - Kenneth is looking to contact projects using JSON on MongoDB, please contact him if you have any information to share - comment posted for review from Tradeshift - https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201709/msg00000.html - comment posted for review from Australia (though it is an indirect link and not properly posted for commenting), and it appears to be observations and not a specific comment for action - https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/201709/msg00001.html JIRA tickets https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=12972 (note that the view can be changed using the box icon at top right; the list view provides the most summary information, without the detail view obscuring the screen space) - when creating tickets, remember to distinguish the following components by how they are described to be used as categories: < https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:components-panel > https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:components-panel - if you leave the "Component/s" field empty, the ticket will not show up in the summary filter - status and resolution values: - NEW - the issue has been created but not yet agreed to be in consideration or not for the development distribution - in order for the issue to become active work for the committee the new ticket must be changed to OPEN or it will not be seen in the "to do" filter - the other option on a new ticket is to change it to DEFERRED - please remember to look at the open filter to ensure visibility: https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=12972 - OPEN - the issue is in consideration for the development distribution - keep the issue OPEN when assigning to Ken for incorporation - please remember to add a comment regarding expectations whenever you assign an OPEN ticket to another person for any action - RESOLVED + Applied - the issue is incorporated in test but not released - RESOLVED + Fixed - the issue is incorporated in a working draft version - RESOLVED + Later - the issue is still up for discussion for a future minor revision but not the current development - RESOLVED + No Action - considered as no action for any distribution - RESOLVED + Cannot Reproduce - considered as no action for distribution - APPLIED + Fixed - the issue is included in a public review (record the availability of the disposition once review opened) - DEFERRED - the issue is not in consideration for any minor revision - please remember to use this when creating new tickets for backwards-incompatible changes - see also the discussion on the status workflows here: https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201709/msg00000.html - members please note to discuss ticket issues as comments to the ticket so that we can audit the discussion when making decisions about the ticket, without having to find the discussion on the main mail list - to find all of the OASIS TC Administration tickets related to UBL, use the https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=13070 filter NEXT FACE-TO-FACE - the face-to-face meeting in Australia was very successful and fruitful - should we be planning our next face-to-face meeting?
