Meeting Agenda

• Current state of HEIG Obscore work
  • Who's attending Interop??
    • Few in attendance; mostly US folks, many on zoom
• • Discuss Interop - Janet lead discussion
    • Outlined HEIG Obscore doc work and where it stands - noted only 7 use cases and there needs to be more; also contribs from more wavebands needed
    • Discussed Interop session for HEIG Obscore topic. Mark/Mathieu organizing a DM session. Overview of Radio/HEIG/Timing progress on docs; then rep from DAL, DM, Registry to summarize activities and ask questions/have a discussion
    • from Mark CD: To help keep the focus on the roadmap for standardizing the extensions, I would like to provide a summary of the various extension projects in an introductory presentation, rather than have individual presentations on the Notes. For this, I’d like to ask each Interest Group to provide:
      • A slide or 2 summary of
        • the status of your Note
        • the status of any implementations (implemented or planned)
      • A statement on the following questions
        1. What are the features about your domain which require an extension to ObsCore to facilitate discovery of your data?
        2. Are there open questions which still need to be resolved with your group on your Note?
        3. Are there particular questions which you feel need discussion at this session?
      • This could be about content that you feel needs careful consideration by the community, or about the evolution of the documentation during the standardisation process, or whatever.
  • Seeded questions for HEIG - review and write up draft responses
    • Mark presented questions for IGs that he sent in email; folks discussed for clarity; Ian volunteered to draft response.
• • Use case review/discussion
    • Reviewed Use cases in current doc; thought they were a good start but more needed
• Next meeting is xxx ... after Interop - chairs will coordinate then
• AOB
