http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200803/msg00001.html

No other comments.

Support page submissions

None this week.

ADOPTION SC / UBL FOCUS AREA

ACTION (2/26): JB to notify OASIS that we have approved

formation of the Adoption SC, etc.:

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200802/msg00035.html

Done.

GKH: Will now set up the mail list.  GKH will take charge of

the events area, but other members who have signed up for the

ASC need to decide which section of ubl.xml.org they will be

responsible for.

UPDATE PACKAGE STATUS REPORT AND SCHEDULING

ACTION (1/8): JB to revise the work schedule spreadsheet.

Pending.

JB: We are finally done making the changes and are ready to

begin package assembly.  The Feb. 17 cl files are the correct

ones, right?

GKH: Yes.

AGREED that we are including in the "patch" part just the files

that have changed since 2.0.  All of the cl directory is new.

Reviewing the package methodology and naming (see Minutes of

Pacific UBL TC call 5|6 November 2007):

At the end of this process, users will find the following at

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ubl/ :

os-UBL-2.0.zip

The original UBL 2.0 package published November 2006.

os-UBL-2.0

The same, unzipped.

os-UBL-2.0-update-delta.zip

Informational package of (nonsubstantive) patches to

os-UBL-2.0.zip.

os-UBL-2.0-update.zip

The UBL 2.0 package as patched by application of

os-UBL-2.0-update-delta.zip.  That is,

os-UBL-2.0 + os-UBL-2.0-update-delta =

os-UBL-2.0.update

An existing user of os-UBL-2.0 will probably need to

examine os-UBL-2.0-update-delta to determine which

changes to apply.  A new user of os-UBL-2.0 will

simply download os-UBL-2.0-update.zip.

os-UBL-2.0-update

The same, unzipped.  Note that this is necessary in

order to provide targets for the updated namespace

URIs in the revised code list files.

JB: Changes to the spreadsheets and schemas (documentation

parts only) are recorded in a file currently called

changelog.txt.  Changes to the cl directory are as follows:

- Repaired the entry for Bosnia and Herzegovina in

CountryIdentificationCode-2.0.gc

- Updated all codelist files from genericode 0.4 to genericode

1.0

- Revised content of PortCode-2.0.gc to provide additional

columns and broke out subsets of that file into smaller

pieces for ease of implementation

- Created new version of defaultCodeList.xsl

Note that for scheduling reasons this list does not include CVA

files as originally intended; they will be provided in UBL 2.1.

PLANNING FOR THE TC MEETING IN BOLOGNA 14-18 APRIL 2008

Only change from previous plan is Mavis's hotel:

UBL 2.1 ISSUES LIST

ACTION (12/18): TM to populate the new issues list with all

currently known UBL 2.1 issues.

Pending.

2008 TC MEETING SCHEDULE

4-8 August 2008 in Montr�al

Confirmed.  Hotel Europa, rue Drummond (the week prior to

the Balisage conference in the same location).

January 2009 in Fremantle

Still tentative.

TC CONCALL SCHEDULE

Note that there will be no UBL TC calls the weeks of 7, 14, and

21 April due to the UBL TC F2F in Bologna.

AGREED to change times this coming weekend per our usual

policy.  Email on this will follow.  (Bottom line: The Pacific

call time will change from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. in New York

as it always does.)
