[CESG] Approval of CCSDS Document Project - All Recipients Please Review

Wed Jun 22 18:46:00 UTC 2016

Mario,

As Deputy Area Director for SOIS, I fully approve of the MOIMS/NAV plan for the 5-year revision of the XML Specifications for Navigation Data Messages and concur that the Secretariat should request the necessary CMC poll.

Dear CESG chair and CESG colleagues,

Brigitte and I fully support the proposal by the MOIMS/NAV WG to approve the new project for the 5 year revision of the XML Specifications for Navigation Data Messages (CCSDS 505.0-B-1) and kindly ask the CCSDS Secretariat to establish the required CMC poll. However, before doing this we would like to submit a request to the CESG (see below) for approval.

For the 2 prototypes (originally done by NASA and ESA), we would like to propose that in this case no prototype is required based on the following argumentations:

  *   The revised book will be the result of removing material from the current version. In fact, the XML representations of the ADM, ODM and TDM, currently in the published blue book, will be migrated to the message specific books in the context of their on-going 5-year reviews (e.g. the ADM XML will be included in the ADM book revision).
  *   What will be left in the to be approved revised book is the a "Combined Instantiation" of navigation data messages (see Section 4.14) along with basic sections on XML in general. The Combined Instantiation allows merging ODM and/or ADM and/or TDM in a single file.This material will be technically unchanged with respect to the currently published book and already went through prototyping (see attached NDM/XML PROTOTYPING TEST PLAN & REPORT, yellow book)
  *   The above approached is proposed in agreement with the NAV WG chair and deputy chair.
  *   There are in general scarce resources in CCSDS, therefore avoiding unnecessary work should be welcomed by everyone.

NASA has agreed to take over the book editorship task.

We would appreciate to receive your endorsement for this approach by 28Jun16.

Best regards,

Brigitte & Mario
