Icon 661x0r1.pdf

DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION: The review document recommends a technique for the packaging of data and metadata, including software, into a single package (e.g., file or message) to facilitate information transfer and archiving. It provides a detailed specification of core packaging structures and mechanisms that meet current CCSDS agency requirements and that augment the current CCSDS packaging and language Recommendations to accommodate the current computing environment and meet evolving requirements. This Recommendation leverages the wide community acceptance and usage of XML technologies by making the packaging manifest an XML document defined by the XML Schema specified in the document.

REVIEW INSTRUCTIONS FOR REVIEWERS: Member and Observer Agencies are requested to send their sets of review comments to the Review Coordinator with a copy to the CCSDS Secretariat. Each review comment should be submitted on a separate Review Item Disposition (RID) form. Submission of RIDs in electronic form is preferred. The following ASCII RID forms are available (click on form name to access): Contact the Secretariat office at secretariat@mailman.ccsds.org if you have questions.

Note 1:

Per resolution MC-S97-22 of the CCSDS Management Council (May 1997), the Secretariat no longer makes routine hardcopy distribution of draft CCSDS Recommendations. Instead, electronic copies are made available on line. Camera-ready copies of draft Recommendations for local reproduction may be requested from the Secretariat.

Note 2:

Agency comments should be received by the review coordinator on or before the "Review ends" date. Document managers should schedule an agency review period that allows time for receipt of reviewer comments and formulation of an agency position prior to the end date.
