• V2 conformance

For v2 conformance only there were two topics of discussion: cardinality and usage/behavior There is agreement that the existing documentation for conformance is good but that minor tweaks should be made. It was stated that there is some ambiguity in the usage section and there are errors in the cardinality section. For example, if there is extra data based on the cardinality, should that data be ignored or should an error occur. We also believed that cardinality is an easier topic than usage/behavior; so there was agreement to split the two topics and treat them independent for now. Next week’s call should discuss edits to clarify cardinality. At the next WGM meeting there should be a quarter dedicated to discuss usage.

• DSTU testing.

Due to competing resources the project has not made good progress in the last few months. However, ICSR has agreed to work with ICTC in their DSTU testing to “test” any guidance that is provided.

Actions:

• Jason will update the DSTU wiki page.
• Leonard would provide details about changes he would like to make about cardinality and usage/behavior
