status of GLUE Schema 2.1 document
by Alessandro Paolini 18 Nov '22

18 Nov '22

Dear all, I was wondering about the status of the Glue2.1 Schema document: last news circulated some year ago was that it went for public comments but I didn't hear anything about the outcome of that. I saw that Alan published a test copy on gitbook: https://docs.ogf.org/glue-2-1-test/ but that the document is not yet published here: https://www.ogf.org/ogf/doku.php/documents/documents so I was wondering if there are any pending/missing steps to get the document finally approved.
