[Css-csts] Fw: Draft Red FF book on CWE

[Holger.Dreihahn at esa.int]

Dear Erik,
Please find below the link to the CSTS FF Red-1 book for your review and 
approval for submission to secretariat. Below is also a link to the 
updated CSTS SFW (now a Draft Pink Book). There are some CSTS SFW changes 
pending, but as said below we believe the CSTS SFW is fine for serving the 
purpose of reviewing the CSTS FF.

Please let us know your comments and then how to proceed.

Best regards,
Holger

Subject:        Draft Red FF book on CWE



Dear Holger, Tim, and Wolfgang,
I have finished my updates of the FF book, which include the updates from 
Wolfgang’s review plus those resulting from the discussion that Wolfgang 
and I had last Monday. I believe that unless you have additional comments, 
this is ready to send to Erik for his AD review and approval for 
submission to the Secretariat to request Red-1 review. The draft FF book 
can be found at URL
https://cwe.ccsds.org/css/docs/CSS-CSTS/CWE%20Private/Future%20Services%20using%20Toolkit/Forward%20Frame%20CSTS/FF-CSTS-r-0_1-180615.zip
 
Note that there is a difference between the information Annex “Cross 
References to Cross Support Transfer Service Specification Framework” 
(Annex L) and the corresponding annexes in the MD and TD book and 
Guidelines. Section 4.18 of the Guidelines states “The CSTS shall provide 
in an informative annex a table listing the specific (sub)sections and 
paragraphs of the CSTS Specification Framework (reference [1]) that are 
referenced by the new CSTS, and identifies the (sub)sections and 
paragraphs of this new CSTS that make specific reference to each of those 
CSTS Specification Framework (sub)sections/paragraphs.” The reason that 
this annex is to exist is to aid the updating of the CSTS specification if 
and when the SFW is updated. I had suggested this particular approach. 
However, I have found that constructing this annex is a time-consuming and 
error-prone process. For the Forward Frames book I have instead listed the 
pages of the FF book on which the references exist instead of the 
(sub)sections of the FF book in which the cross-references appear. This 
allowed me to use Word’s built-in indexing capability. This produces a 
much more complete and consistent cross reference annex, and it serves the 
same purpose as the originally-defined annex. I recommend that we use this 
approach from now on. If you do not agree that this approach can be used, 
I can generate the (sub)section-based annex in the coming weeks, but for 
the purposes of Erik’s review the current form is fine. (Note also that if 
we take this approach, we don’t necessarily need to change the 
corresponding annexes MD and TD books because they still meet the intent 
of the annexes.) 
 
Wolfgang had sent to me his markup of the CSTS SFW, to which I aligned the 
FF book. In our discussion last Monday, Wolfgang and discovered a few more 
changes that need to be made to the SFW, which he will make when he 
returns in July. In the process of finishing the FF book edits, I also 
discovered a very few more items that need to be updated in the SFW, 
mostly along the lines of making agreed changes consistent across the DP, 
BDP, and SCPD procedures. I have documented these needed changes in detail 
and will send them tomorrow to Wolfgang and copy you. I have also changed 
the labelling of the draft SFW to that of a Draft Pink Book and uploaded 
it to the CWE at URL 
https://cwe.ccsds.org/css/docs/CSS-CSTS/CWE%20Private/CSTS%20Framework%20and%20Concept/CSTS%20SFW%20Pink%20Book/921x1p1x1%20draft%20180613.doc
 
Wolfgang and I agreed that for the purposes of Erik’s review the changes 
that are still to be made to the SFW are in the noise, and so we agree 
that we can safely point Erik to this draft for whatever cross-referencing 
he might choose to do.
 
Best regards,
John
