Hello folks, Congratulations on an accomplishment! I discussed about the document within our team. Here are the comments/questions from it. I hope this may be a help in any way. - We will appreciate a more detailed explanation for each object in the figure. For example, what are the meanings of the term "events" and "observer" illustrated in figure 5 in chapter 11? - A glossary might be helpful to readers. For example, the word "property" is first used in section 3.2.1, but I was not sure what it represents in the CDL context until section 5.1. And the word "CDL" is used after section 6.1 with no explanation. - We will appreciate the conceptual modeling written in section 3.1. Are the concepts (e.g. Configurable Components, System, ...) used throughout the series of CDDLM specifications? If so, a more detailed explanation is expected. It must be a great help for understanding the entire picture of CDDLM. I believe it should be here rather than in separate documents. - The language requirements are defined in each released document (foundation document / SF-CDL / XML-CDL) and they are slightly different each other. We will appreciate a bit clarification or justification for it. - The existing CDL specification defines the generic mechanism for inheritance and reference, but who defines the standard vocabularies to describe services and resources? We are not sure if configuration descriptions can be interoperable without standard vocabularies. - In chapter 2 and 3, the relationship between XML-CDL and SF-CDL is explained prior to the detailed explanation of configuration description. Unless they are being used together, I guess it may be better placed in appendixes. The main part of the document should be standalone I believe. My apologies if there are lack of my understandings.

Dear CDDLM members,
We need volunteers who will review the document in a thorough manner. Please let me know who is willing to do so. I would prefer to receive the review wihin next couple of weeks. Our plan is to submit the document to the GGF editor well ahead of the GGF in Korea.
This is an important accomplishmet for the CDDLM group. Congratulations to Jun for this milestone!
Best regards,
Dejan.
