      CNES:  Two comments for MOIMS area:
- Data Entity Dictionary Specificaton Language 
(DEDSL) - XML Schema : CNES is said to have 
editor+prototype responsibility on this project 
while we are not aware of a new activity there 
and it was decided at the last CMC not to conduct 
a maintenance of this and other DAI documents ; To be clarified.
- Conjunction Data Message : CNES among other 
agencies have supported the prototyping of the 
CDM, which is not reflected, but is confirmed for 
remaining activities. To be formalized, if needed.
      CNSA:  CNSA encourages our engineers to 
make more contributions to the corresponding WG. 
Recently several engineers of CNSA already 
contacted to the WG Chair and conformed their 
participation level. The present  " Projects - 
Resource View " table does not reflect the CNSA 
participation status yet. But this does not 
affect the decision for the WG continuing due to 
CNSA participation levels are limited to 
"contribute" and "monitor" now. However CNSA 
would hope the Projects - Resource View could be 
updated in the future to reflect CNSA participation status.
      DLR:  please see my remarks on the projects (sent to Mike as PDF)
      ESA:  Due to a very recent reduction of the 
ESA 2013 standardisation budget, an adjustment of 
the allocations to the different areas, including 
CCSDS projects is underway. Therefore ESA cannot 
confirm at this moment the resources refected in 
the CCSDS Management Framework in their entirety. 
ESA can thus only provisionally confirm the 
resources and approve the programme of work contained in CWE.
In particular the ESA resources for the following 
projects need to be re-confirmed:

CCSDS Symmetric Key Management Recommendations ESA(L)
Producer-Archive Interface Specification (PAIS) ESA(P2)
Improved Coding Schemes for the Proximity Link ESA(L)
Space Data Link Security Concept of Operation, Issue 1 ESA(L)
Space Data Link Security Concept of Operation, Issue 2 ESA(L)
SOIS-WIR Low data-rate wireless communications 
for spacecraft monitoring and control  ESA(L)
XML Specification for Electronic Data Sheets for Onboard Devices, ESA (LP)
Common Dictionary of Terms  ESA (P)
Also the currently greyed items (not approved) cannot be confirmed.
For all other items, the effort alocation 
indicated in the CWE is confirmed by ESA.
      NASA:  NASA confirms that our current plan 
is to provide the resources that are documented 
as "NASA-provided" in the current resource plan, 
with two exceptions.  NASA will "adopt" this 
resolution after those changes are made in the Framework.
(1) For the “Framework for Extensible Space 
Communication Cross Support Service Management” 
in CSSM, remove NASA from the prototype, and 
replace it with TBD.  NASA does not have 
resources assigned to this, and the WG chair said 
that these prototypes were actually TBD.
(2) For the “SOIS-WIR High data-rate wireless 
communications for spacecraft monitoring and 
control” in the Wireless WG, our understanding is 
that the document is planned to be 
cancelled.  Coordinate with the WG chair and 
either cancel that document, or at least remove 
NASA from the resources list for support to that project.
With those changes, NASA agrees to provide the 
resources that NASA is signed up for.  Also, NASA 
agrees that the current resource plan for all 
projects looks acceptable.  We understand that 
some documents have TBD for some resources still, 
but those will be discused and decided on at the next meeting.
