Today’s topics:

1) Organisation.

Updates. Mike Loeffler has been elected as the new chair of the ALM-PLM Interoperability WG, to take effect immediately.

Discuss segmentation of convergence activity with Cfg Mngmnt WG

ACTION: confirm concepts to be covered by the Cfg Mngmnt WG

ACTION: propose that Cfg Management WG take the lead on versioning proposal

Note we will focus on ALM-PLM interoperability needs not covered by “basic concepts”

2) Spec convergence

New page to track ALM-PLM spec and extension convergence activities and discussion

Compare approaches in the proposed draft and RELM PD

Resources included in the draft specification:

Product cf Item

Item is clearly more generic and could be a superclass. Product sets a clearer message of the role of the resource for ALM-PLM Interoperability. The CFM WG could adopt a wider term.

Version cf ItemVersion

The original draft review of the OSLC Core extensions proposed using just the Version resource type, which reduced the number of resource types needed. This is our recommendation to the CM WG.

View cf View

Ownership by CM WG needs to be decided. Recommend that CM WG take this on to enable cross-domain structures (views).

For discussion next time

Part resource

Resource relationships: isVersionOf, hasView
