[Cesg-all] Presentation on the new SANA Registry Management Policy & WG process updates

[Shames, Peter M (312B)]

Dear CESG-All,

The SANA is going to be updated in the next month to include an initial set of revisions to the Organization and Contacts registries.  Changes will also be made to the process for assigning and using unique object identifiers (OIDs).  All of this is described in a Registry Management Policy document, CCSDS 313.1-Y-1 and in a companion WG handbook, Procedures for SANA Registry Specification, CCSDS 313.2-Y-1.  Future work on the SANA will incoirporate additonal features.

This presentation describes the new RMP features, procedures, and policy changes.  The biggest impact is that each WG is now expected to review existing registries and look for ways to re-use or extend them where appropriate.  The motivation, as you may recall, is that we were well on our way to creating four or five separate “organization” registries and this just made no sense.  There will now be Organization and Contact registries that are entirely suitable for re-use.

Feel free to use this in your WG meetings or to distribute it to your team.  You may ask me, or any of the other authors, if you have questions about what is provided and what is expected.  Lastly, while this all has had CESG review and approval it will take another few weeks to get the final CMC approval to relaease the documents.  However, the CESG draft copies can be provided if you wish to see them sooner rather than later.

Regards, Peter
