<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Dear Peter, dear
CESG colleagues,</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">looking at the
(attached) list of Polls, I noticed the number of Yellow Books that are
in the publication poll, that is, they have reached their final stage.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif"> I was reflecting
on the fact that for Yellow Books - those YB belonging to the administrative
track - the normal practises foreseen for the other books are not
required. Namely, it is not required to::</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">- create a draft
project</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">- have it approved
by the CMC</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">- run the Agency
Review of the draft document</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">This means, that
the Yellow Books only become (formally) "visible" when they are
ready for publication (or equivalently, when the ADs issues the relevant
resolution).</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Given the increasing
importance- and number ! - of the Yellow Books, and acknowledging
their key role in governing the CCSDS practises, I would like to
reassess the production steps of the Yellow Books </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">I mean that, there
should be a sort of milestone, where assessment/review gets
requested. This could involve, for instance, the ADs.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">(If I remember
well, this was informally done only when the Org & Proc book was established.).</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">For YB all
we have today is that some sort of assessment can only be done during
the polling process by the ADs ( by issuing PIDs). However this can't be
considered a mean to review the document. </span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">I will bring this
point to discussion, either at the next Telecon, or at the Spring Meeting.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Meanwhile, please
let me know if you have comments or proposals,</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Kind regard,<br>
Margherita</span>
