7. Published NDR ODP 6 Published CCTS 3.0 Data Type Catalogue ODP 5 Held F2F Meeting at SAP Walldorf –Progressed Next version of the XML NDR –Progressed XML Representation of Core Components D08B Schema ATG2 Progress Since Last Forum

8. AT2 Topics For This Week Schema production –Handover of schemas for D08B to ICG for audit –Review ICG audit report to identify issues to be addressed in Technical Specifications –Planning for D09A schema production Work on projects (Technical Specifications) –NDR v3, currently at ODP step 6 –XML4CCTS, currently at ODP step 3 Joint meetings –TBG17/ICG/ATG2 to address issues related to schema production

9. NDR v3.0 Purpose –Provide XML expressions of semantic data models representing business information exchanges. These XML expressions can be used wherever business information is being shared in an open environment using XML Schema to define the structure of business content. Status – Entered ODP 6 Implementation Verification comment period –March 04, 2009 – April 17, 2009 Received one Implementation Verification –Will review this week. Project Leader:Mark Crawfordmark.crawford@sap.com Editor:Michael Rowellmichael.rowell@oracle.com Approval Status:March 04, 2009 Current ODP Step:ODP 6

10. XML for CCTS Purpose –Defines an alternative XML-based format for the representation of Core Components that will facilitate defining, exchanging, submitting, and storing all CCTS artifacts in XML. Such a solution will greatly simplify the task of doing CCTS discovery work and will lead to increased “out of the box” vendor support for CCTS. Status –Project was paused –Project was picked back up –Contribution to update to CCTS and NDR 3.0 –We will continue to review this contribution this week.
