This document is a result of compilation of over 200 use cases brought by TC members including representatives from your workgroup. We appreciate your input and we believe that we have captured the requirements needed to meet your use cases. Please take a look at the requirements and provide feedback through your representative, Dr. Junichi Takemura. In addition to these requirements, in our recent face to face meeting, the SDD TC voted to work with representatives of the CDDLM WG to try to converge CDDLM CDL with relevant portions of the SDD. We also agree there is a common motivation to drive the industry to a single deployment or hosting interface standard and we'd like to share our requirements in this area with your WG. We understand that you are nearing approval of your V1.0 specification and any changes would most likely be reflected in later versions of the CDDLM specification but we believe this convergence is important to industry acceptance of both specifications and look forward to working with your representatives on this matter.
