Re: [emergency] Status of CAP 1.1, EDXL scope

Hi Mike, Glad to have you - join the fray!  As to your
questions:

1.  CAP 1.1 was worked in the Message and Notification Subcommitee
and brought to the TC for approval.  It was first to be just a few
editorial comments and some minor fixes.  However, as we see that
2.0 is further down the road given the EDXL work at hand, we took
comments and have worked through a few things some implementers needed to
get their jobs done.  It is still at the TC level working out a few
more details and hopefully will be voted on within the week....or
so.  Then it will go to public comment.

2.  No we haven't a defined URL for comments on 1.1 and only expect
very slight changes from what is there now and what has been published in
the last two weeks of meeting notes. 

3.  Currently the EDXL Distribution Element is being worked at the
TC level in a working group forum - notes also on the site.  There
are also some "requirements documents" on the site that were
handed off to the TC from DHS via the EIC.  This was a starting
point for us and we are working through it.  The same DHS/EIC
community is preparing the next set of EDXL requirements which will be
for "resource."  

Hope that answers your questions,

Hi
all,

 

I have been trying to come up to speed as an observer. You’all are doing
an amazing

job on this, congratulations!.

 

Can I ask three newbie questions? 

 

1)      
What is the status of CAP 1.1 (public
review?)

2)      
Do you have a url for current CAP 1.1
draft?

3)      
Briefly, what is the key motivation
behind EDXL? Widen the scope? Harmonize with US federal 
initiatives?

 

Thanks in advance,
