11. What this translates to is "lead time". Right now we're looking at two to three weeks lead time from "freeze the model" to "flip the switch" on the build. Let's look at a calendar. "Build"

17. Internal Review Issues 1b Review produced > 200 separate issues/comments Issues fell into two broad categories: Documentation issues - clarity, consistency, completeness, integration. Concerns about the model contents & implementation. The Status of the review issues fall into two categories: Open Closed

18. Internal Review Issues Open Still working for Build 2. Will address after Build 2. Have not decided whether or not to implement. Closed We have implemented. Model related issue arose from misunderstanding some aspect of PDS4. We disagree: Incompatible with PDS4 requirements. Incompatible with the model approach we're using. Not possible to implement within our time & budget constraints.

19. Internal Review Some Closed Issues Implemented Document set integration. Need analogs for PDS3 spreadsheet & container. Misunderstanding New Structures don't support qubes. Volatile metadata in a static archive (redelivery issue). Disagree Labels that describe multiple data objects don't really work. Do away with character tables. Other space science archives: Consider using VOTABLE, CDM & OPeNDAP approach, class="variable" & named "dimension".

20. Internal Review Some Open Issues Documentation issues – still working many of them. Need robust, global metadata. New Structures don't support some EDRs, Telemetry, DSN data. Use a standard bundle entry (bundle index.html) Consider a nomenclature review. There is a proposed alternate XML implementation Starts with XML Schema 1.0 or 1.1? Perceived complexity. Too many subclasses.

21. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (1) Going back to the original reviews, the issue is for the number of variations expanded from the four base structural types. The underlying concerns are overhead and confusion. There have been a lot of changes since build 1b. Now as we look at this issue we have to ask three questions. What do we count? Are there too many? If the numbers are reasonable, do we have the right ones?

22. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (2) What do we count? Count what the data providers and end users see.

23. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (3) What do we count? Count what the data providers and end users see. Schema – specifically the Product_* schema.

24. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (4) What do we count? Count what the data providers and end users see. We have 40 Product schema. Wait for it …

25. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (5) 40 Product schema – by function. Aggregations – 2 (Probably will be 3)

26. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (6) 40 Product schema – by function. Aggregations – 2 Observational Data – 10 (probably will add 1 or 2)

27. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (7) 40 Product schema – by function. Aggregations – 2 Observational Data – 10 Observational Support – 10 (e.g., browse, document)

28. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (8) 40 Product schema – by function. Aggregations – 2 Observational Data – 10 Observational Support – 10 Context – 5

29. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (9) 40 Product schema – by function. Aggregations – 2 Observational Data – 10 Observational Support – 10 Context – 5 Operations – 13 (includes 5 PDS3 Context)

30. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (10) 40 Product schema – by function. Aggregations – 2 Observational Data – 10 Observational Support – 10 Context – 5 Operations – 13 Providers see 27, end users see 22.

31. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (11) Are there too many? Comparing to PDS3 tends to be an apples and oranges situation, but the number of PDS4 observational data products is roughly equivalent to the corresponding subset of PDS3 Data Objects. PDS4 context products is roughly equivalent to the corresponding subset of PDS3 Catalog Objects. PDS4 observational data support products is substantially greater than the corresponding subset of PDS3 Data Objects.

32. Open Issue: Too many Subclasses (12) Do we have the correct set? We're close, but will probably add and subtract a few. May be significantly affected by the potential change in the XML Schema implementation.
