Subject: Revised minutes of Pacific UBL TC call 16|17 October 2006
[Forgot to list NDR among the standalone documents; noted in the meeting but not recorded in the last set of minutes.] MINUTES OF PACIFIC UBL TC MEETING 00:30 - 02:30 UTC TUESDAY 17 OCTOBER 2006 ATTENDANCE Jon Bosak (chair) G. Ken Holman Tim McGrath (vice chair) Andy Schoka STANDING ITEMS Additions to the calendar: http://ibiblio.org/bosak/ubl/calendar.htm None. Liaison report: UN/CEFACT AGREED to incorporate our input regarding code list support into the upcoming ATG/UBL NDR gap analysis. Subcommittee report: PSC JB: Note that Mark Leitch has been restored as PSC co-chair after a brief absence from OASIS membership. TM: Expected a PSC meeting this week, but no news. AS: People are recovering from New Delhi. ACTION: TM to ping the PSC list regarding meeting plans. Subcommittee report: TSC AS: Made good progress last week preparing the "UBL Basic International Trade Scenario" (BITS) for our meeting in Singapore. Review of Atlantic call No comments. 2.0 SCHEDULE UPDATE JB: Submission of the UBL 2.0 CS has been accepted for Standards processing. The schedule is: Last two weeks of October: OASIS administrative processing First two weeks of November: OASIS member "familiarization" Last two weeks of November: Balloting by member organizations Unless something turns up during administrative processing, we're done with the development of UBL 2.0 as such. This puts us at about the halfway point with UBL 2.0 work. SINGAPORE MEETING GKH: Have now bought tickets. JB: KSH has sent regrets. ACTION: TM to draft time schedule for specific Singapore agenda items; JB to put them into the usual meeting agenda template. The rest of the meeting was spent discussing the status and timing of the UBL 2.0 Support Package and Standalone Documents, as detailed in the following. UBL 2.0 SUPPORTING MATERIALS: 1. STANDALONE DOCUMENTS UBL 2.0 Naming and Design Rules (NDR) Undergoing its initial public review and on the agenda for Singapore. Code List Value Validation Methodology (CLVVM) We have CLVVM 0.7 Draft 1. GKH will prepare Draft 2 of CLVVM 0.7 for discussion in Singapore and then create CLVVM 1.0 after the meeting. UBL Customization Methodology This consists of two pieces: a general guide on developing a customization (owner: TM) and then the tools for implementing it (owner: GKH); call this latter piece "customization verification". TM will plan a work session on customization in Singapore and prepare a "50 thousand foot" view for discussion. We did not further discuss the timing of c11n v10n. UBL 2.0 Small Business Subset (SBS) We have a preliminary draft but don't know whether Stephen Green intends to continue as co-chair of the SBSC. ACTION: JB to check with SG regarding his plans for participation. Some of the draft SBS instances are being used in creation of the BITS. It's possible that we can create something like the SBS by working backwards from BITS. Due to the inclusion of international transport documents, this wouldn't be a "small business" subset but rather something like a "sample customization." To be further discussed in Singapore. UBL 2.0 International Data Dictionary (IDD) Work begins at the meeting in Singapore. [We didn't discuss this in the call, but: ACTION: JB to propose the template for UBL 2.0 spreadsheet translations.] UBL 2.0 SUPPORTING MATERIALS: 2. THE SUPPORT PACKAGE Code List support GKH will recreate UBL 2.0 support files after publication of the CVVM; can deliver in January. Sample Implementation Guide from Denmark From "Minutes of UBL TC meeting 17 August 2006 (1)": PB: We will deliver a package containing sample documents, scenario descriptions, schematron and XSL transformations, and XForms when we give our presentation at the November TC meeting in Singapore. AGREED that these materials should go into the Support Package as "Sample Implementation Guide from Denmark." Note that scheduling of the Support Package is based on this deliverable. ACTION: JB to check with PB and MHB regarding status. UBL Basic International Trade Scenario (BITS) A basic framework will be produced in Singapore, developed further in December, and delivered for publication in January. Output stylesheets Note that "stylesheets" in the following includes both the implementation-independent mapping of data items in a particular schema and the actual instantiation of that mapping in a stylesheet that will produce output according to the UN Layout Key or its closest equivalent. The basic problem here is the business mapping from UBL to printed documents; unlike the UBL 1.0 set, many UBL 2.0 message types have no standard printed representations. It appears that our best strategy is to concentrate on the ones that do. AGREED that for the first edition of the SP (targeting delivery in January) we will update the existing stylesheets for the eight documents in the original UBL 1.0 set, create a stylesheet for Freight Invoice by adapting the stylesheet for Invoice, and develop new output stylesheets for Waybill, Certificate of Origin, Forwarding Instructions, and Transportation Status. Business experts at CrimsonLogic will be invited to help with work on the transport documents. UBL Model Letter of Agreement JB to finish up for delivery in January. EF and EA data models TM will generate the EA data model (same as the one from which the UBL 2.0 uml directory was generated). We assume that SW will send the EF model from which the UBL 2.0 schemas were generated. ACTION ITEM REVIEW ACTION: JB to check with BAH for use statement. Done. ACTION: JB to check with OASIS regarding UBL 2.0 CS announcements. Done. ACTION: TM to inform UN/CEFACT on approval of UBL 2.0 as an OASIS Committee Specification. Pending.
