Resolution for May 2004(updated from November 2003)
The CMC agrees to publish the Producer-Archive Interface Methodology Abstract Standard as a “CCSDS Standard” (Blue Book)
Implementations are not appropriateRequest parallel ISO review
Action for CMC considerationClarify procedures dealing with the French version of OAIS (and other) documents
Desire to have emerging French translation of OAIS Blue Book obtain ISO approval
• Can it leave out a non-normative part of the document and still be accepted?
• Can it make updates reflecting current references?
Desire to have it added as a CCSDS web site document
