draft 4th edition directory texts
Hello all
Erik is in the zone and is rapidly producing the drafts of what will
be our fourth edition of the directory standard
First drafts of X.501/part-2, X.511/part-3, X.518/part-4,
X.520/part-6, and X.521/part-7 are up on the server in word and pdf
formats at
ftp://ftp.bull.com/pub/OSIdirectory/4thEditionTexts/
These drafts were constructed by applying the following to the base
3rd edition:
1) the amendments that have been approved by ITU and are in FDAM
ballot in ISO/IEC;
2) Erik's and Skip's best guess of what the Related Entries FDAM will
look like after our editing meeting in November in Orlando;
3) Approved Technical Corrigenda;
4) Draft Technical Corrigenda currently under ballot with a close
date that allows the comments to be reviewed at the Orlando meeting;
5) Draft Technical Corrigenda that is being developed now and
submitted so that the ballot date will close before the ITU meeting
at the end of January; and,
6) Corrected ASN.1 errors found with validaton tools.
These documents, or revisions of them, will be submitted to ITU by
the morning of 9 October to meet their deadline for texts that will
be approved at the ITU Study Grup 7 meeting in Geneva 29 January - 3
February 2001.
Since it is unlikely that these documents will be identical to the
output of the editing meeting on Related Entries and with the
resolution of comments on the Draft Technical Corrigenda, we will
produce documents detailing the corrections needed. Those will be
submitted by the seek before the SG7 meeting. In addition those
documents will contain corrections that are found in the review.
We would like to minimize the number of those types of corrections so
we are asking all of you to review as much of these texts as
possible. Please send email to Erik ( mailto://era.als@get2net.dk )
and me ( mailto://hoytkesterson@earthlink.com ) describing any errors
or problems you find. corrections will be incorporated into the texts
sent to ITU by 9 October.
Erik has done yeoman work here. I intend to buy him a drink in Orlando
