[CMC] ODM and SC14 forward action

[Soula Jean-Marc]

Dear Mike
 
I agree with the draft text of the minutes, for what concerns the ODM and SC14 interfaces, but I think it could be usefull that the right of CCSDS to give free access to its own originated documents on its web site is reminded as, if this is part of CCSDS - ISO document, it is only an agreed point with SC13 but not yet for SC14.
 
Best regards

	Objet : [CMC] ODM and SC14 forward action
	
	

	Dear CMC members:
	 
	With respect to the Navigation WG ODM document, and the issue with the potentially competing TC20/SC14 standard, we want to confirm that the actions that we are taking are in line with the opinions and position expressed at the CMC and SC13 meeting in Colorado Springs.  
	 
	If you do NOT respond to this note by 05 March 2007, we will assume that the direction described below is OK.  It is important that Mr. Bergamini and Mr. Berry can press forward to work the issue of document processing with ISO and SC14.  They will proceed in this direction, which we agreed to in Colorado Springs.  
	 
	As a refresher, here is the paragraph from the draft CCSDS CMC minutes (not yet approved, but soon to be distributed to you).  
	 
	"Status of Navigation WG ODM interface with TC20/SC14 - Mr. Nestor Peccia reported that Mr. Dave Berry will attend the next ISO TC20/SC14 meeting.  There are no technical issues, but control issues need to be resolved concerning the possible publication of competing ISO standards for space navigation.  It was suggested that the ODM document could be submitted to ISO via TC20/SC14.  Other compromises were also discussed.  The CMC position was that the CCSDS-originated document from the Navigation WG must be released as an updated CCSDS Blue Book,  that it must be submitted through the ISO system using the ISO "cover sheet method", and that there should not be a competing document from TC20/SC14.  The control issue is less critical, and the CMC would generally agree to a process that gave SC14 some control over the ISO document numbering and the ISO approval cycle.  It is expected that the control issue will be worked by the WG leads and by the SC13 and SC14 chairmen, and it will be resolved at the next ISO TC20/SC14 meeting in 2007 May."
	 
	In a nutshell, the CCSDS position is that the ODM document must be published as an updated Blue Book and then forwarded to ISO for publication as an International Standard using the cover-sheet method, but it is acceptable to CCSDS if the ISO document number and the ISO review process are both defined by SC14.

	
	As a result of that position on this issue, Mr. Berry will work with the SC14 working group, and Mr. Bergamini will work with the ISO General Secretariat to resolve the control issue to the satisfaction of both organizations.  Note that the SC14 meeting is coming up soon, so any issues with this approach must be raised very quickly. 

	
	If you concur, no response needed.  Thanks very much, 

	 

	   -=- Mike
