<br><font size=1 face="sans-serif">Please find attached for your info the
set of CMC resolutions and actions decided during the last joint CESG /
CMC meeting held on 25th / 26th Oct 2016 at ASI, Rome.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=1 face="sans-serif">These resolutions are avoiding the administrative
overhead of handling dozens of CESG and CMC polls, but it imposes a set
of actions to implement them.</font>

you will find below a textual summary indicating the actions to be completed

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>Resolution 24</b></font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>The CMC acknowledges the progress
made in the SLS optical communications working group towards the establishment
of blue books for the high photon efficiency and the low complexity optical
standards. CMC welcomes the intention expressed by the working group to
document the high data rate options into orange books. The CMC is
however concerned about the pace of progress in the production of such
orange books. Due to the lack of agreement on the structure of the orange
book, the CMC has debated the issue and has concluded on the structure
of the orange books that is considered to be the preferred solution.
</b></font>

however that the entire working group will work together to create these
orange books. </b></font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>Considering the above, the CMC instructs
the CESG to implement the CMC recommendation identified above down to the
working group level. It is understood that none of these orange books can
become blue books without consensus of the CCSDS agencies at all levels
of the CCSDS organization (as is defined by the CCSDS Procedures manual
– CCSDS A02.1-Y-4).</b></font>

<b>DAI WG Resolution: </b></font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>CMC acknowledges that in today’s
Data Economy, space systems generating and transporting large
amounts of relevant data; be it science (GAIA is generating 50 GB/day)
earth observation (Sentinel-2A generating 1 TB/ h), navigation or telecommunication
satellites, constitute key assets for the Data industry.</b></font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>In this context, standards supporting
proper storage and preservation of data, open access to the space data,
merging of data from different sources, analysis and processing big data
and all related processes and mechanisms are of paramount importance.</b></font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>Scientific communities are already
for quite some time working nationally and internationally to define adequate
standards for their data, be it astronomy, planetary exploration or earth
observation.</b></font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>The question is what should the CCSDS
organisation do and how should it position itself in the wake of such space
data revolution and how could the work done over the years to standardise
data storage and archiving be leveraged at the service of the new paradigms.</b></font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>In this context, and following the
request of the DAI WG to the CMC for support, CMC would like to encourage
the DAI WG to address the following questions within a short paper to be
delivered to CMC by 1 February 2017:</b></font>
<ol>
<li value=1><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>What is the current DAI roadmap
and how does it make a valuable contribution to the data issue, taking
into account what has already been produced including the overall worldwide
efforts in this area?</b></font>
<li value=2><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>Taking into account that
there are dedicated international organisations working on archiving and
merging scientific data, astronomy data, as well as Earth data, what should
be the role of CCSDS in general and that of the DAI WG in particular? </b></font>
<li value=3><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>Is the long term data preservation
of the housekeeping data properly addressed in these initiatives? Is there
a need for developing this part of the data preservation?</b></font>
<li value=4><font size=2 face="sans-serif"><b>In this context, what would
