[Sea-sa] New version of RASDS++ uploaded to the CWE

[Shames, Peter M (US 312B)]

Dear SEA RASDS++ enthusiasts,

I have finally completed a first complete, end-to-end, pass through the updated RASDS++ document.  All of the new figures are inserted, new text is included all sections, and major edits have been made across the board.  The document is uploaded to:  https://cwe.ccsds.org/sea/docs/Forms/AllItems.aspx?RootFolder=%2Fsea%2Fdocs%2FSEA%2DSA%2FDraft%20Documents%2FRASDS%20Revisions%202020%2FRASDS%20revisions%20draft%20documents&FolderCTID=0x012000F83FD93BEFF45E4FB5D1769B01CA762F&View=%7BA709F322%2D0E67%2D45C7%2D932D%2DCB78C55CE268%7D

On the Preface page, near the front, I have added some notes for the major contributors, but feedback from anyone will be welcome.  Of particular note is that there are two different chapter styles that are being tried out.  One starts with the same “object overview” diagrams as the original version.  The other starts with the new “object ontology” diagrams.  Other approaches are likely to be possible, and feedback is most definitely requested.  I would like the structure and flow of each of the sections to be the same, right now they are intentionally different, as I just describe, but also somewhat “ragged”.  This needs to be fixed, suggestions are welcome.  We also agreed during the last telecon to move some of the more “compelling” examples up into Chap 2.  This changes the character of the document somewhat, but all to the good in my opinion.

Other than that, there are a number of loose ends, “attend to me”, and “what are we doing with this” sorts of questions throughout.  Some of these relate to the inclusion of RM-ODP “parentage”, which is still true, but may no longer be terribly relevant.

And there are some specific sections where there are tags with various folks names on them.  Please review and propose solutions where you can.  Some of the additional figures in later chapters are missing or not yet recovered from the original, or maybe need to be replaced.  Please keep an eye out and signal what you think (or what you are willing to do).  We also need for figure out what we are going to do in the various Annexes.  I did not yet include Koki Ansari’s figure, but would like to put it into a new “Here is another way to use RASDS++” annex.

In the absence of other specific guidance or requests for change I am going to assume that the chapter assignments identified in the “RASDS++ ToC draft - writing assignments - 2023 August 15” still reflects your commitments to getting the chapters assigned to you done.  If that can occur prior to the working meetings that would be ideal.

Looking forward to hearing feedback and to seeing you in The Hague.

Thanks for the continued support, Peter
