	Cc: Mario.Merri at esa.int; CCSDS Engineering Steering Group - ADs
	Subject: [CMC] Resolution: request to extend XTCE review to
30Apr05
	Importance: High
	
	
	CMC members: you will recall that as part of our expanded
program of cooperation with the Object Management Group (OMG), the
charter of the MOIMS Spacecraft Monitor and Control (SM&C) Working Group
was updated to include a formal CCSDS review of the OMG's specification
"XML Telemetric and Command Exchange" (XTCE). As noted in the BACKGROUND
below, it is desired to extend that review period until the end of the
April in order to gather a complete set of comments. Accordingly, as
CESG Chair I recommend that the CMC should approve the following
Resolution: 

		"The CMC resolves to extend the Agency review period for
the CCSDS Red Book 660.0-R-1 and its accompanying Green Book 660.0-G-1
until 30 April 2005 in order to gather a complete set of CCSDS
comments". 

	CMC Chair: could you kindly notify the CESG if this resolution
is approved?
	
	BACKGROUND:
	
	At the Athens meeting, CCSDS personnel joined the OMG Space
Domain Task Force's (SDTF's) "Revision Task Force" and submitted 97 RIDs
that were generated as part of the first CCSDS formal Agency review of
the XTCE specification. It was agreed that it would be desirable to keep
the window for comments open for one more month to allow JPL to complete
its review. Many of the current RIDs were cleared during this meeting
and the remainder will take a couple of months to work through. The
overall schedule for updating and reviewing the XTCE specification was
discussed, particularly in view of the need to synchronize the review
loops. The following 2005-2006 schedule was agreed by OMG and CCSDS
personnel:
	
	30 APRIL:    Window for comments ends.
	30 AUGUST:   Updated XTCE specification available (OMG "Interim
Report")
	             CCSDS encapsulates Interim Report; start of CCSDS
second formal Agency review
	30 OCTOBER:  Close of second CCSDS Agency review.
	             CCSDS RIDs to RTF
	01 NOVEMBER: Close of RTF window for comments
	01 FEBRUARY: RTF deadline to submit RTF Report on XTCE to OMG
Architecture Board.
	             Start of OMG Architecture Board - Domain Technical
Committee - OMB Board approvals.
	             CCSDS issues Blue Book when OMG approval is
completed.
	
	Best regards
	

	Adrian J. Hooke
	Chairman, CCSDS Engineering Steering Group (CESG)
