Re: [cti-stix] Moving STIX 1.X Forward
If possible, I would suggest a weekly status of the issues tracked in github.

Hello all. One thing that has become apparent during the past month of debate - STIX 2.0, no matter what it may end up being - is going to be quite a ways off before ratification as a standard. There are a lot of problems to solve and a lot more debate to be had, and this is going most certainly take time. However, I am growing a bit concerned that, while all this fantastic debate has been going on - we are neglecting many real-world important deficiencies in the STIX 1.X lineage.

 

I am referring to a number of non-breaking enhancements to STIX that have been discussed back-and-forth on the Oasis and MITRE lists for almost a year.

 

- The need for a new trust-model based marking standard that either significantly enhances the current TLP mechanisms, or replaces them altogether

- The need for improvements to the Sighting mechanisms (the whole +1 discussion)

- The need for sequence based testing

 

I would like to propose that - temporarily - the CTI-STIX subcommittee try to focus on solving some of these immediate concerns that are impacting users of STIX today in the hear-and-now. The futures conversations should continue of course - but I am wondering if we should try to come up with a separate track or committee for these two threads of this discussion, so that the 1.X line can keep moving forward?

 

I just worry a lot that we are suffering from split-brain scenario, and as a result the 1.X line is not moving forward.

 

Does anyone else feel this way?
