[Css-csts] Re: Updated MD-CSTS on CWE

[Margherita.di.Giulio at esa.int]

Dear John,
I was wondering if we can follow another approach:
- given that the MD CSTS book is ready except for, say, another two weeks 
for the WG to make a final assessment and 
- given that the CSTS SFW has just been recalled by Wolfgang, in order to 
fix few thighs that were raised during the Spring Meetings (so it is still 
being processed)
 - can't we submit also the MD CSTS to Secretariat, say by mid-May? I mean 
that, if Erik agrees, we could assess with Secretariat what is the waiting 
time for processing this new book. If this is a reasonable time, then we 
could put on-hold the begin of the Review process for CSTS SFW until MD 
CSTS gets processed, and so start at the same time the Review for both 
books, CSTS SFW and MD CSTS. This would be very useful for all Reviewers , 
as they would have means  to assess, at the same time, the Framework and 
the first Service built on top of it.
Do you see any reason for not doing so?

@ Erik: what is your opinion?

However, before proceeding with MD CSTS , can you let me know if you have 
included in this last version Yves' comments from 7th April (at a first 
glance it seems not).
(Finally, one small typo: in page 4-5, the reference 4.5.1.1.1 should read 
4.5.3.1.1.1)

Kind regards,
Margherita

Subject:        Updated MD-CSTS on CWE



Dear Margherita,
As of last week?s meeting in Noordwijkerhout, the members of the WG had 
not had a chance to review the MD-CSTS to assess its readiness to be 
recommended for Red-1 review. No decision was made as to when the book 
review might be completed. However, we did discuss the possibility that 
once we agreed to send the book ?up the chain? that we could post it in a 
public CWE folder that CSTS SFW Red-2 reviewers could read to give some 
context to the review of the Framework book. In any case, some decision 
need to be made about how soon the CSTSWG needs to review the MD-CSTS.
 
In the meantime, I found a few typos on the v0.20 draft of the MD-CSTS. 
Also, while updating the TD-CSTS book, I realized that the section titled 
?Managed Information? should really be called ?Configuration Parameters?, 
since the purpose of the section is to identify how the various 
configuration parameters that are delegated by the CSTS SFW to the derived 
services to let them determine how they are to be configure (e.g., by 
management or to values fixed by the service specification itself). We 
discussed this change in the WG meeting and the change was agreed.
 
I have placed an updated copy of the MD-CSTS that contains these typo 
fixes and the change from ?Managed Information? to ?Configuration 
Parameters? on the CWE at URL

John
