Comments received from 2 SSCONE members.

Comments are being processed. 

outcome

  • Some actions recorded Finalise initial handbook

  • rework needed for service categories

  • update needed for XML example

  • Should we restrict acccess to some pages before publishing first version of the handbook.

    • It is not a problem to go public with Open Questions or Work in Progress elements in web page.

Review the Donlon example

Action (all): provide review comments by 5/3/19

 

Comments received from 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.
