Good morning Mike, Thanks for the question. Let us look into this and get back to you about the process for updates. As I recall, more interactivity with the relevant ISO working group is expected for ongoing updates compared to the initial submission.

Alan, When DFDL was first submitted as a PAS standard to ISO, besides the OGF DFDL document itself, I believe there was additional material also that was part of making up the overall submission package. I'm a bit unclear on what materials are part of OGF being accepted as a PAS submitter, and where that material ends, versus which materials accompanied the specific PAS submission of DFDL. I.e., which materials would also need to be updated if a revised DFDL version were submitted. Can you advise on what these additional documents would be to make up a complete submission "package"? An update to DFDL is quite possibly in the works, not imminently, but in a year or so, but I am retiring at the end of 2025 so will be less active going forward. I want to set the stage on what all is involved in creating an updated DFDL spec., beyond just the spec itself, for those still working on it.
