Re: [emergency] RE: Final draft of the letter to send out for CAP requirements.
Hi Carl,

  I'm not sure whether you're talking about sending this letter out on behalf of OASIS or OGC. Please note that all feedback to a TC MUST come through the feedback mechanism (i.e. comment list); any other input would step around our IPR policy and put the work of the TC in jeopardy. Any such letter should clearly identify the TC's feedback page, IPR Policy page, and link to comment archives (similar to what I include in a typical public review notification to members).

Regards,

Mary

Dear EM TC -

 

The latest version of the letter to send.

 

We discussed the letter today during the GIS SC call. We would like to send 
the letter out as soon as possible but want to make sure that we email it to the 
correct organizations. So we are looking for suggestions.

 

Thanks!

 

Carl

 

Dear < >

 

CAP has now been widely implemented. As a result, we are beginning to 
receive feedback from implementation experience, especially regarding 
requirements for enhanced capabilities, clarification of certain elements, and 
new use cases.  

 

Therefore, in order to document a consistent set of requirements for 
potential enhancement or extensions to CAP, we are seeking your input and 
suggestions based on your experience implementing and using CAP. These could be 
use cases, requirements for new elements, enhancement to existing elements and 
so forth. This information will be collated and then used as the basis for 
discussion and consensus on possible changes and enhancements to CAP and 
potentially also to EDXL.

 

Thank you for your help and consideration.

 

Regards
