Dear CESG Members,

Conditions for approval of CCSDS 902.13-R-1, 
Abstract Event Definition (Red Book, Issue 1) 
have been disposed to the satisfaction of the 
AD(s) who voted to approve with conditions. The 
Secretariat will now proceed with CMC polling to 
authorize release for Agency review.

Erik,

As we discussed in the NDSSC telecon, I am 
willing to let this document go out for Agency 
Review with the understanding that all of the 
SANA registry design will be worked right away 
and that it will be completed and tested prior to 
any request for the document to be published.

Please see Procedures for SANA Registry 
Specification, CCSDS 313.2-Y-1.  This is an 
abbreviated 16 page document created to guide Wg 
thru what they need to do to comply with the SANA 
guidelines and the RMP.  In sec 2.3 Area and WG Overview, it says this:

The following describes the overall workflow for 
a WG to define and develop a new registry. 
Depending on the WG and its familiarity with the 
process the flow may differ considerably from what is described.
a)  Identify a need for a registry related to a new standard.
b)  Discuss the proposed registry requirements 
and design with the SANA Operator 
(info at sanaregistry.org) and, if necessary, the 
SANA Steering Group (SSG) (ssg at mailmain.ccsds.org).
c)  Explore the SANA to see if there is an 
existing registry that either meets the need or 
that can be easily adapted to do the new task.
d)  Evaluate how best to use or adapt existing 
registries, where that appears to be feasible, 
and discuss the approach with the affected organization.
e)  Develop an initial registry design prior to 
initial Red Book finalization and describe it in 
the draft SANA Considerations section. Work with 
the SANA Operator to create the candidate 
registry prior to the start of interoperability 
testing, and exercise the registry during testing.
f)  Document the registry policies, registration 
rules, and Review Authority, and if necessary the Registration Authority.
g)  Include a completed SANA Considerations 
section in the final document, pointing to the 
new registry and describing any other related 
registry extensions such as new roles added to 
Organization or Contacts Registries.
h)  Work with the SANA Operator to document the 
final registry design prior to Red Book agency review.
i)  Work with the SANA Operator to promote the 
registry from Candidate to Approved status prior to Blue Book publication.
j)  Participate, as needed, in any registry 
review or request for extensions after it has been published.
I think that is pretty clear and to the 
point.  Let's work together to get this sorted 
out now.  According to e) and h) this should 
already have been done, prior to Agency red Book review.

Thanks, Peter

Peter,

Re  PS-2 (2nd condition listed in your responses 
to the CESG poll), the  CSSA is willing to 
provide inputs for this. So yes, discussion with 
SSG/SANA and CESG (if necessary) is certainly an 
acceptable approach.  We can and will add a note 
to indicate that the details of management 
registry will be indicated in the final published 
version. Can you please indicate if that 
addresses the condition? And inputs on the other 
conditions would also be very much appreciated.

Thank you,
-Erik

Hi Erik,

Let's talk this through tomorrow.  I raised the 
issue of AR roles with CSS because CSS was 
creating these new registries and being, in my 
mind, somewhat haphazard about how they ought to 
be managed.  If we need to kick this around in 
the SSG, and with the SANA, then we should do 
that before finalizing this document.

Having said that, we can probably send it out for 
agency review without having this settled if 
there is a note to the effect that the details of 
registry management is under discussion.  I 
believe that the agency reviewers are unlikely to care, or notice.

And BTW, this is NOT a RID for agency review.  It is a CESG and RMP matter.

Peter

Dear Peter,

The CSSM WG has taken a look at the conditions 
that you have stated re poll CESG-P-2019-06-005, 
Abstract Event Definition (Red Book, Issue 1) for 
CCSDS Agency review.  Please see below for the 
consensus responses to the conditions.  Your 
timely response as to resolution of the conditions will be appreciated.

Best regards,
-Erik

--CSSM WG Responses--

PS-1
This document should be relevant to the MOIMS 
Planning group as well.  Please ensure that they review and comment upon it.
Taken as a request, not a condition; yes, all 
interested parties are encouraged to participate 
in agency reviews; MOIMS SM+C, MP representatives 
(M. Sakarati, S. Cooper) were copied on emails 
prior to resolution for agency review.
PS-2
In Annex A2.2: There should be a defined AR Role 
to permit a person to update the Schema registry
This seems like a general SE consideration re 
role definitions in SANA -- for the CSS Area it 
makes more sense to have these kind of role 
definitions defined more globally for CCSDS 
rather than the CSS Area making them up on the 
fly so to speak.  Note that role of "Schedule 
Publisher" was questioned long after the SSF 
(Simple Schedule Format) was published.  The CSS 
Area is willing to provide inputs on role-types, 
but reluctant to define them for all of CCSDS.
PS-3
In Annex A2.3: Plese reconsider whether updates 
to the Epoch_Time_Systems registry should be a 
fre for all or managed, as in controlled by the 
WG or by the CSS Area in the absence of an active WG.
1) "Fre for all" taken to mean "free for all".
2)Epoch systems appear to be fundamental to all 
of CCSDS. Note that it was the NAV WG that 
requested some sort of open ended mechanism for 
future time systems.  It seems that the CSS Area 
would not be the proper area for controlling 
Epoch definitions; this will likely require inter-area negotiations.
3) Suggest that this be treated as RID for the 
agency review as negotiation of conditions 
involving multiple areas does not seem 
appropriate as a condition for proceeding to review.
PS-4
In Annex B2: The Schemas all have White Book "w" 
names, they should have Blue Book names.  The XML 
schema registry 
"service_management_xml_schemas/902Schema/902x13" is "Not found".
When this is a published recommendation, these 
will indeed have blue book associated schema 
names.  However, they are not yet published and 
to have blue book naming at this time is deemed 
as to be potentially confusing. Clarifying text 
will be added to the review copy that indicates 
that when this book is published the schema will 
be at the SANA location indicated and that until 
such time the schema is available for review in 
the CSSM WG public CWE.  A directory in the CSSM 
CWE public space for schemas relating to books 
currently under review already exists and it's URL will be supplied.

Hi Erik

I discussed the matter with Colin and we agreed 
with a formulation of the note along these lines: 
"NOTE -- this standard does not impose any 
requirement on persistence of identifiers. Should 
it be required, this shall be specified in the 
document that adopts the Abstract Event Definition."

I hope this is fine with you.

Dear Mario,

The CSSM WG has taken a look at the condition of 
you have stated re poll CESG-P-2019-06-005, 
Abstract Event Definition (Red Book, Issue 1) for 
CCSDS Agency review.  Please see below for the 
consensus as the response to the condition.  Your 
timely response as to resolution of the condition will be appreciated.

--CSSM WG Response--
CCSDS 902.13-R-1, is not a service 
specification.  It is a data format 
specification.  As a data format, 902.13 has no 
"understanding" of services that that employ the 
data format and therefore cannot and should not 
impose behavior requirements, especially with 
regard to retaining globally unique identifiers, 
etc. Service specifications that choose to adopt 
the data format are completely at liberty to 
state behavioral requirements as needed to 
specify the service.   The WG further agreed that 
in fact the existing note can be stated more 
correctly.  The revised note will now read "NOTE 
-- this standard does not impose any requirements 
on persistence of identifiers."
