Subject: RE: [emergency] NIEM/EDXL Proposals in Support of DHS Funding
Thank you Rex for your email summary, to Jeff for conducting the EM-TC meeting yesterday in my absence and to you all for the good work you do in our committees and subcommittees!! There are certainly ways where EDXL and NIEM with proper motivation can coexist, support one another and achieve data interoperability. I am very familiar with the white paper you describe and appreciate the good work done by Lee, Tim, Gary, Don and others in that group to document a possible solution. I have reached out to Dr. Griffin with Doug's introduction and look forward to his response. To the point on CAP profiles being taken up by the collateral and documents SC, I would prefer that we follow our normal path for assigning work to the SCs. It is my opinion that first the topic (which is now properly agreed to be assigned to the RIM-SC by the EM-TC) for guidance have a meeting engaging all interested parties. There are several things that need to come from that group to include guidance and advice to the EM-TC on how profiles of all EDXL standards should be handled, standards for profile development, whether a SC for profiles or a profile SC for each standard, and recommendation on how they should be documented from an adoption perspective). The results would be provided to the EM-TC that would consider asking the EMA-TC to consider submitting any writing/drafting assignments to the C&D SC. With the tremendous amount of work the TCs and SCs have on their plate, the coordination that must be done to insure work is not duplicated and the resulting documentation reflects the intent of the developers of the Standard, as well as the fact that we work under the OASIS process to accomplish our objectives must all be considered when we choose what time requirements we are going to put on our volunteer staff. I'm hopeful that all interested parties will be present at the RIM meeting 12-1ET Thurs June 28 for this important discussion. All the best, Elysa Jones, Chair OASIS EM-TC -----Original Message----- From: emergency@lists.oasis-open.org [mailto:emergency@lists.oasis-open.org] On Behalf Of Rex Brooks Sent: Tuesday, June 19, 2012 12:26 PM To: emergency-adopt-docs@lists.oasis-open.org; emergency@lists.oasis-open.org; emergency-adopt@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [emergency] NIEM/EDXL Proposals in Support of DHS Funding Hi Everyone, Please excuse the duplication, but I used the wrong reply address for OASIS lists. Otherwise this message is what was delivered to the personal inboxes of the addresses I have dropped from this mailing. Elysa, we discussed the issues around your effort to re-engage DHS S&T and we decided it would be a quick, easy WIN if we could show how EDXL and NIEM can work together since we are still seeing people assume that these two efforts are competitors.Doug Allport noted that he had spoken with Robert Griffin(?) under whose direction S&T funding currently falls, and you and Doug can fashion an approach that will provide him with the easy WIN he needs to get S&T back on track with us. It turns out, as you might recall, that Lee Tincher wrote a White Paper which could be the basis for showing how NIEM and EDXL can work together. Gary Ham had several key comments that will almost certainly avoid some pitfalls if we are careful in that regard. I suggested that a demonstration in addition to a White paper ought to be especially effective. If Tim's group could pull that rabbit out their hat, it certainly wouldn't hurt. Doug Allport had a suggestion involving profiles which might work with the upcoming RIM SC work on profiles. I would suggest that Tim Grapes and you, Elysa, would probably be the most knowledgeable about how to pull this together. I suggested that we take this to the EM Adoption TC and engage the Collateral and Documents SC for the White Paper portion of the combined effort. If I have missed anything from today's very active discussion, I encourage any of you whom I have copied with this message, to point it out. Clearly, we should take advantage of next week's Collateral and Documents meeting at noon Eastern on Tuesday the 26th to discuss this.
