        for the ongoing polls (that are not affected

<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">Dear Margherita,</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">I must admit to being a little puzzled
by your comments, but I agree that this is worthy of discussion.  That
said, I really do not want to see these edits to the Yellow Books significantly
delayed because they are intended to clarify procedures for the WG and
to remove ambiguities.  The longer we delay cleaning this up the more
work we make for the WG and the CESG.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">in the CCSDS Org & Proc doc, A02x1y4c2,
the process for this sort of Administrative Track document that is normative
upon CCSDS is quite clear:</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span>
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-Bottom:0px"><span style=" font-size:12pt;color:#0082bf;font-family:Calibri"><b><br>
6.1.6 ADMINISTRATIVE TRACK </b><br>
The Administrative Track consists of the following: – CCSDS Record (Yellow
Book). <br>
…</span><span style=" font-size:11pt;font-family:Calibri"> </span><span style=" font-size:12pt;color:#0082bf;font-family:Calibri"><br>
Yellow Books may also be used to document CCSDS internal processes, procedures,
and controlling guidelines. This document is itself a CCSDS Yellow Book,
and it is a controlling document describing CCSDS procedures. Any CCSDS
Yellow Book that is normative upon CCSDS itself requires CESG and CMC approval
polling. </span></p>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">The issues that we have had with the
ambiguities were brought up in the CESG meeting as part of the SEA overall
report, (see attached d01-SANA-SSG).  There was a separate SANA Issues
presentation to the CESG that addressed in more detail the issues and the
specific changes that were in discussion (see attached "SANA-SSG-Issues
& Proposal").  The CESG had some comments and they were addressed
in the version of the materials I attached here.  These documents
were prepared by the SEA SAWG and were reviewed within the SANA Steering
Group (SSG) which includes SANA, Secretariat, and CESG members from several
agencies.  Several working telecons were held with the SSG, Secretariat,
and the SANA Operator to make sure that the actual process and steps was
properly described so that Working groups would have no ambiguities to
wrestle with.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">I believe that the normal course of approval
for such Administrative Track documents that are normative on CCSDS is
the one that we are on.  This is what we followed for the original
versions of these documents and I can see no reason why these updates should
not follow the same documented process.   These Yellow Books are supposed
to be reviewed and approved, or not, by the CESG, and then concurred, or
not, by the CMC. </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">That said, I do agree that there are
a number of documents in the review queue, all of which properly require
the attention of the CESG.  I suggest the following approach, at least
for these:</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">1.        That the
review period, at least for these documents, can be extended by a week.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">2.        That a
vote of "Abstain, does not affect my area" not be allowed.  Every
Area that uses registries will be affected by these.</span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">I do not think that it will be helpful,
nor a contribution to the smooth workings of the CCSDS, to delay this until
the Spring meeting.</span>

<br><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span>
<br><span style=" font-size:12pt">Dear Peter, dear  CESG colleagues,
</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
<br>
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><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
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><span style=" font-size:12pt">
</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
- create a draft project</span><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
- have it approved by the CMC</span><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
- run the  Agency Review of the draft document</span><span style=" font-size:12pt">
</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
<br>
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><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
<br>
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 <br>
I mean that, there should be a  sort of milestone,  where assessment/review
gets requested. This could involve, for instance,  the ADs.</span><span style=" font-size:12pt">
</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
(If I remember well, this was informally done only when the Org & Proc
book was  established.).</span><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
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.
<br>
<br>
I will bring this point to discussion, either at the next Telecon, or at
the Spring Meeting.</span><span style=" font-size:12pt"> </span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial"><br>
