Dear John,
Thanks for the (easy) comment. I corrected the terminology.
Best regards

Yves,
Section C4.2 in CSTSFW R-0.19 defines the “three sub-numbers” of a given
services’s servicesIdentifier OID as:
         i.                 (service name)DerivedServices;
         ii.                (servicename)ExtServiceParameters;
         iii.               (service name)ExtServiceProcedures.

However, in the CCSDS-CSTS-SERVICE-TYPE-ID module in the recent R-0.20 ASN.1
document, the following OID names are defined:
mdDerivedServices
mdExtServiceParam
mdExtProcedures

trkDataSvcderived
trkDataExtServiceParam
trkDataExtProcedures

ruftDataSvcderived
ruftDataExtServiceParam
ruftDataExtProcedures


“mdDerivedServices” is already consistent with section C4.2, but
“trkDataSvcderived” and “ruftDataSvcderived” are not. Shouldn’t they be
“trkDataDerivedServices” and “ruftDataDerivedServices”?

There’s also an inconsistency between C4.2’s
“(servicename)ExtServiceParameters” and “mdExtServiceParam”,
“trkDataExtServiceParam”, and “ruftDataExtServiceParam”.

While it is true that these are all just names and they are not required to
have the same construction, having them follow a common construction makes
connecting the concepts and instances easier.

Best regards,
John
