Description
Meeting Minutes of the Emergency Management Infrastructure Subcommittee for April 13, 2010. At today's meeting, the participants discussed the use of XML Elements versus the use of XML Attributes. There was general agreement that XML Elements are preferred. The participants also discussed briefly (a) the importance and impact of the Tactical Situation Object on routing (a question for Hans); (b) the potential need for a Content Object Zero to support more expressively combined security and associating related content objects; (c ) provenance & pedigree; (d) IPAWS and adoption of the DE. Also, at the follow-on EM TC meeting, the participants discussed the schedule which is to finish requirements for DE 2.0 this 2nd quarter and set a goal for an internal draft DE 2.0 by 3rd quarter although this may slip and face-2-face meeting(s) are deemed crucial to make the significant progress needed.
