Subject: [tgf] TGF Pattern Language Draft is available

 

Hi,

I have just loaded the first, complete
draft of the TGF Pattern Language proposed standard to the KAVI document
management system at OASIS. An earlier attempt to load was cancelled because of
a major formatting error that was messing the document up. The correct version
is:

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/document.php?document_id=42513

 

After talking with Colin, John, Chris and
Andy, I have put forward an initial, very conservative lis of patterns which
maps closely to the initial conformance criteria that we identified during
elaboration of the Primer document. The only new concept ‘promoted’
to a distinct pattern is ‘Supplier Partnership’ that was not
covered in the Primer as a conformance requirement.

 

This document is in three parts:

-         
Introduction with explanation
of pattern languages and a worked (theoretical) example – we should
replace this with an actual pattern from the final agreed set, to avoid
confusion

-         
The 19 patterns that constitute
the core language – several of them are completely written; some
partially; others just a placeholder

-         
The conformance criteria
– I have taken the language we used in the Primer and adapted it to refer
to each pattern as necessary

 

For the TC meeting on Thursday, we need to:

-         
Agree in principle if we go
ahead with a pattern language to create our TGF standard;

-         
Agree to create a
‘Committee Specification Draft’ from this working draft, that will
start the formal process towards a standard;

-         
Agree who will complete the
remaining text for the outstanding patterns, notably:

o   4 Common Terminology

o   5 Policy Management

o   8 Franchise Marketplace

o   14 Citizen Identity Management

o   15 Channel Mapping and Delivery, and

o   17 Resources Management

I’m happy
to take 4 and 17 – please look through: we’ll be looking for
volunteers on Thursday or let me know via the list if you can take on one or
more.

 

I hope this helps!

 

Best regards,

Peter
