Task

Description

Status

Priority

Preparation started. Subject on agenda point for F2F.

Question: anyone willing to prepare and present the compliance point of view from the SWIM Governance Implementation Project?

outcome: 

• Agreed to be put as agenda point for the F2F. 
• There should be a focus on interoperability. In particular: Is the service sufficiently described? Is the description valid? Is it complete?
• Coordination is required with with SWIM Governance IP to get someone to explain SWIM Governance IP view on SWIM compliance
  •  Oliver K. to check what is the best way to coordinate on this subject.

2 SSCONE members.

Comments are being processed

outcome:  

• A conformance matrix has been added for the Donlon example: Conformance assessment - Donlon example. This makes clear that the example service description is not complete (eg access and use conditions; eg example code)
• Example Code: probably not possible for the Donlon example. We will have to wait for an example of a service that is effectively implemented. 
• Making services using a specific data format (eg GRIB2) more discoverable. This could be resolved by making a field explicit in the Registry. This will be proposed to the Registry requirement gathering activity.
• Reordering of section for better readability (eg business experts, developers)
  • Expanding the Table of Content improves reading by making clear the structure of the document. 
  • Any suggestion for an improved reading (eg improved ordering of sections) is welcome.
• The idea of having a template for a textual service description that would generate an XML service description is not retained currently.
• Additional / better examples: One SSCONE member indicates that LFV has written full fledge Service Descriptions Documents (SDDs) for their services. These could become interesting examples.

• •  Check whether LFV would allow SSCONE to make use of their SDDs as examples.

Task /wiki/spaces/SCOI/pages/59606015

Added a table of discussion points about the 2 options. The main point of discussion is: which SWIM specification should require the AIRM conformance?The Information Definition specification? The Service Description specification? Or both? The answer may be crucial to handling the CR.

outcome:

• This will be further discussed during F2F.

Task Conformance assessment

Agenda point for F2F (where someone from SWIM Governance Implementation Project will present the principles of SWIM Compliance)

Added example for Donlon: Conformance assessment - Donlon example.

outcome: 

• not discussed.

Any other business
