Dear CMC Members:
In the absence of the Secretariat, I have been checking the CMC Polls page
http://www.ccsds.org/CCSDS/Poll myself to see what has happened to recent
actions that were recommended for CMC action by the CESG.
As far as I can tell the situation is as listed below. It would appear that
although all four polls seem to lack an appropriate quorum of votes from
senior Member Agencies:
a) MC-E03-11/12 have been approved,
b) MC-E03-13 has been approved pending ratifiaction by CNES,
c) No consensus has been reached on MC-E03-14 and therefore it has been
rejected and will require further CMC deliberation.
Is this in fact the will of the CMC?
Best regards
Adrian J. Hooke

MC-E03-12 The CCSDS resolves to approve an additional Red Book review of
Orbit Data Messages (CCSDS 502.0-R-3). This resolution supersedes
resolutions MC-F02-06 and MC-F02-09, which, respectively, authorized
issuance of the document as a Blue Book and directed former subpanel P1J to
"utilize PVL, or preferably XML" in the published document.

Not really "disagree" but request time to check with our expert not
available at this time. Answer expected by 9 January 2004

MC-E03-14 The CCSDS resolves to approve release of Producer-Archive
Interface Methodology Abstract Standard (CCSDS 651.0) as an issue-1
[Blue/Magenta]* Book. The Secretariat is requested to make arrangements for
publication. *The resolution, if approved, will specify either Blue or Magenta.
Approve publication as Blue Book 5 85.00%

A book, once on the standadrs track, cannot and must not be moved to the
practices track. From the white paper status on it must stay on its track.
On the fly changes would mean that the CMC did a wrong decision on the
white book level already, which cannot be the case!!! See CCSDS A02.1-Y-1
pink sheet page 6.

Consistency with original plan is being preserved.

Hartman, Leo (off-poll communication to T. Gannett. Comment: I think the
minimum criterion for a standard is that
the CESG unanimously agrees that it should be one.)
