Subject: [EXTERNAL] [DFDL-WG] agenda item - review public comments
Sent by: "dfdl-wg" <dfdl-wg-bounces@ogf.org>

The public comment period is over.

I'd like to go through the public comments, which should capture all the outstanding issues for the DFDL v1.0 spec., and narrow down on any where we still don't have a good resolution. My hope would be to edit the spec and review the edits exactly once, and have a final draft this month. To do that we need draft language for resolving the outstanding issues.

Public comments are here:

https://github.com/OpenGridForum/Editor/issues

Several are supportive comments, but do not suggest changes specifically. I plan to just leave those open until the final GFD comes out.

The others that require some actual change and that I would close once addressed in the spec are:

https://github.com/OpenGridForum/Editor/issues/16 - large block of grammar/wording corrections. There is some ongoing commentary on this ticket to get clarity on some of the points of this detailed public comment. Most of the suggested changes are not controversial and can just be applied as suggested.
https://github.com/OpenGridForum/Editor/issues/15 - just needs specific wording to be drafted.
https://github.com/OpenGridForum/Editor/issues/14 - we need to decide: optional, or implementation-dependent/defined - plus specific wording needed
https://github.com/OpenGridForum/Editor/issues/9 - ready to edit into the spec.
https://github.com/OpenGridForum/Editor/issues/8 - just needs specific wording to be drafted
