MINUTES OF PACIFIC UBL TC MEETING TUESDAY 4 AUGUST 2009 ATTENDANCE Jon Bosak (chair) G. Ken Holman Andy Schoka STANDING ITEMS Additions to the calendar: http://ubl.xml.org/events None. Review of Atlantic call minutes No comments. SCHEDULE REVIEW http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200906/msg00026.html TSC (AS): Held meeting last week and continued discussion of Freightwise data models. Expect to hold another work session this week, including a discussion of requirements for new code lists. ACTION: AS to keep TonyC in the loop regarding code list issues. GKH: Spreadsheets? ACTION: JB to ping TM. AS: TSC will not have ss in time for Montréal. GKH: We need summary of the new doc types. ACTION: JB to review current 2.1 doc draft to see what we have. We know that not all doc types have been identified yet. AGREED that we need to add a row in the schedule below current row 15 for "UBL 2.1 Implementation Guidelines." We will need resources to actually accomplish this. ACTION (6/30): TM to circulate a draft CCTS 2.01 DMR to the TC for review. Pending. UBL LATAMLSC FORMATION JB: Have been in correspondence with Kenneth; he will be sending a draft charter for further discussion. UBL 2.1 DOCUMENTATION JB: Will need help setting up the PDF production environment (this is already scheduled for the F2F). CONCEPT OF CODE LIST TEMPLATES FOR UBL 2.1 See http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200907/msg00021.html AGREED that we will include the metadata-only gc files in a separate "templates" directory in the 2.1 package along with an explanation of their possible use. These will not be pointed to from the CVA because they are not participating in validation. This means that for every code list item, there will either be sets of actual codes in the default directory or metadata-only files in the templates directory. (In essence, we are agreeing to GKH's suggestions in the message referenced above with the exception of his suggestion #2, deciding instead to include these files rather than omit them.) The metadata-only files will use the same internal structure used in 2.0, but will be separated into the templates folder rather than mixed in with the others. The location URI will reflect their location in the distribution set. The CEFACT codelists will be moved into the default directory. MONTRÉAL MEETING 17-21 AUGUST 2009 The meeting will be held in the downstairs lounge of the Hotel Europa in Montréal during the week following the Balisage markup conference (http://www.balisage.net/) in the same location. The opening plenary will take place at 09:15 Montréal time Monday 17 August 2009. Call-in information is the same as used for weekly UBL TC calls (see any TC agenda). GKH will host a Yugma session on his machine; an ID will be provided by email at the start of the call. The Montréal meeting marks the completion of outstanding issues and closure of the door to any data model changes till the next public review cycle.
