<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Hi Roger,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Somehow I missed this. Too much stuff on my plate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">My concern with those '</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">sections as “future”'
</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt">is that the way you have proposed to handle them just felt way too obscure. In the SCCS-ADD & ARD we adopted the approach of marking all standards that were not yet Blue Books, or Magenta Books, as [Future]. In the Sec
1.7 References we only included those documents that had been published and had proper CCSDS pubs number assigned. In some of the sections where we did include discussions of [Future] protocols we included a table of "Referenced" protocols where we explicitly
identified "White Books" and even "White Papers" that were in development, but we included these in the Informative Annex D. Table 6-2 on pg 6-4 of CCSDS 901x1m1 (attached here) is a good example. And see [Future} sprinkled liberally throughput the doc.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I have the real concern that not clearly indicating the real status of these in progress, future, or speculative standards is, in effect, hiding the really important bits in the "</span><span style="font-size:5.0pt">fine
print</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt">". I think we should assiduously avoid that.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I hope you understand where I am coming from. And, having already been down this path with CESG approval of those aforementioned SCCS docs, I am guessing this will run smack into the same head-winds. Let's
tack off while there is time and avoid all of that.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Ok?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Sorry about the whacks to your template. I had to have a work-around for that other problem or I would not have been able to get anything done.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">I had a quick scan – only comment is that I know you want to mark sections as “future”, but I think what you are proposing is too broad brush. There are several sections
you propose to mark as “Future” that have extant standards in them, and others that are being actively worked on that I do not think should be treated the same as those that are simply on the roadmap. I would propose the latter are marked as “under development”.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

available.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">As far as hardware compatibility is concerned, perhaps it is time for both of us to break with our allegiance with competing dinosaur technologies and get chrome books!</span><o:p></o:p></p>
