OASIS Open

This zip file contains the schema for the proposed CIQ Profile. These are the same CIQ schema as those in previous zip files, such as the DE 2.0 zip found at http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/emergency-if/download.php/41443/DE_2.0_DraftSchema_v04.zip. But in this case, the CIQ schema are isolated all by themselves, for easier review. Three example xml files were generated from the three main elements of xPIL.xsd, namely Party, PersonDetails and OrganisationDetails. The CIQ Profile elements are also described in the document found as an initial draft at http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/emergency-if/download.php/41649/edxl-ciq-v1.0-wd01-JW-2.odt. Together, the schema in this zip and the document represent the CIQ Profile for your review.

This document is an early rough draft of the OASIS EM TC Customer Information Quality (CIQ) Profile version 1.0. This document describes reusable components for describing persons and organizations in a manner compliant with, but not as comprehensive as, the CIQ standard. The components are defined in the xPIL.xsd and associated schemas, which can currently be found with related schema in http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/emergency-if/download.php/41443/DE_2.0_DraftSchema_v04.zip. This zip file shows how the CIQ profile components can be reused by including them in the draft version of the Distribution Element 2.0.

An updated version 4 of the EDXL Common Types schema. This schema is described in the Common Types Working Draft at http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/emergency-if/download.php/41441/edxl-ct-v1.0-wd01-JW-3.odt. The only change to the schema was the appending of the word "Type" onto the type names. The change aids clarity. A zip file will be uploaded momentarily which includes this schema and others to show this schema in use for supporting a draft version of the Distribution Element 2.0.

A second version of the Common Types document with a basic Section 2 and a few cleanup comments added to the Data Dictionary referencing the soon to be coming CIQ Profile document.

At today's meeting, Jeff reported that a working draft version 1 of the DE 2.0 has been posted. (See http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/emergency-if/download.php/41140/EDXL-DE-v2.0-wd01.odt.) In addition to using the new OASIS template, the primary changes from the previous draft were the additions and revisions of the data dictionary tables resulting from the reorganized DE 2.0 schema. The following topics were discussed: 1. TOPIC: Should we document the common type elements in our DE 2.0 specification or reference and await for those common types to be defined in their own RIM-sponsored specification? (Answer: Reference and await the RIM-sponsored committee draft specification, because otherwise element documentation for these elements will be duplicated in multiple specs (e.g. DE and Sitreps ) and we could put the effort we would otherwise put into the documentation in the DE and put it into the RIM effort. Also the RIM only needs to move this to a committee “draft” specification, which means no public review is required.) 2. TOPIC: Should we use the word “default” to refer to our default value lists for DE 2.0 elements like DistributionType or DistributionStatus, since they are required to be inserted, i.e. we don't allow null or blank values with the assumption that the “default” value will be inserted? (Answer: We will consider this as we move forward with our next working draft.) 3. Would someone like to sign up for revising the TargetArea section of our DE 2.0 Working Draft? (Answer: Lew graciously offered to spearhead the revision of the TargetArea portion of the DE 2.0, including issues such as whether “circle” documentation should go into the OASIS SimpleFeatures Profile.)
