Welcome
Objectives of this meeting are:
discuss future of supporting material, meetings, etc
progress on tasks
Common elements
Future meetings
Next meeting, 20 July, will be Walter's last. Scott will take over the running of both halves, "SSCONE" and "SITCOM" from then. Some reorganisation of this site will take place to facilitate that.
Future of SWIM Supporting Material confluence site
The handbooks are now available on the reference site (http://reference.swim.aero/). This is the "formal/official version".
Handbooks listed as resources: http://reference.swim.aero/resources.html
Additional material will form the basis of knowledge articles.
The status of supporting material confluence site will be made clearer:
it is a working area for drafting the next version.
to ensure this is clear we will add a warning at top of each page with a link to reference site. Let's edit based on this...
Status
This page is part of the ongoing SWIM communities of interest discussions. The content is working material. It should not be treated as final as it is still subject to review, comment and change.
or a table:
Status | Available as reference |
|---|---|
Draft/Final/Published |
|
Discussion:
Can have both a warning and a status. Warning is for general public who need warning up front. Status can be seen as more internal. It is even possible to add the status in the warning dialogue title as well. Note: This may result in the need for multiple versions of the except used.
Update on SSCONE tasks
Question (guidance on XM)
Guidance on the use of exchange models
The guidance material is defined
where to put it? In Handbook? Location?
Discussion:
It was agreed to move the Deciding to use an exchange model page to supporting material - maybe to SOA area or in additional resources area.
However the Using multiple exchange models together is more of a bug monitoring page and should stay where it is,
Task list
The updated task list is at SSCONE Tasks.
The list has been cleaned up. Several tasks have been removed, as being completed or merged. (see below)
