STANDING ITEMS

Additions to the calendar (http://ibiblio.org/bosak/ubl/calendar.htm)

   TM: Will be attending the CEFACT Forum meeting in Lyon.  It is
   possible that the PSC will meet in Brussels at the same time as
   the already scheduled CCTS WG meeting.

   JB: We need information on the upcoming ATG and TBG17 meetings.

Liaison report: Tax XML TC

   SW: The Tax XML meeting last week focused on the position paper
   sent today to the UBL TC:

      http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200508/msg00171.html

   Note in particular Section 3.4 of the paper, which makes it
   clear that the Tax XML TC does not intend to develop their own
   message specifications but rather to produce a common framework
   for the inclusion of tax information data in payloads developed
   by others.  UBL is specifically addressed in Section 4.2.

Subcommittee report: PSC

   See the minutes from this week's PSC meeting:

      http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-psc/200508/msg00005.html

   Subcommittee report: PSC

   TM: TSC met last Thursday and have divided up the tasks and
   started merging COML with the DTTN model.

Subcommittee report: SSC

   SW: SSC has not met; the SC decided to wait till the models
   were ready.

   BH: What is happening with the models?  They were supposed to
   have been done two weeks ago.

   SW: Waiting for PB to produce versions with the sequence
   reordered logically per the TC decision in Ottawa.  We are
   expecting delivery tomorrow.  The spreadsheets from SG have all
   the content, just in a different order, so they can be used to
   validate the spreadsheet structure.

   AGREED that we will proceed with the existing spreadsheets if
   we have not received the updates from PB by Wednesday.  [These
   have since been delivered.]

Team report: Code Lists

   JB: MB is not here today, but I am encouraged at progress so
   far.

Team report: Digital Signatures

   TM: PB has asked TM to get contacts in CrimsonLogic to talk
   about this; will follow up.

   TM: Propose that we register the catalogue group as an informal
   work team with Tim as lead.

   AGREED that we will propose this to the TC.

Review of Eurasia and Atlantic TC minutes

   No comments.

TC coordination

   JB: Note new schedule published today.  I will add a schedule
   review to the standing agenda for TC meetings.
