My apologies to all who were waiting at our new time and day for the technical calls, 9:00am US Central on Thursdays. We all got caught up in our daily work and I didn’t set up the usual reminders to flag me down. Next week we will meet at the new time. I hope this… Continue reading Technical Call Missed 2022-02-24

Just a quick update: for the next block of technical calls, we’re shifting the schedule slightly. Meetings will now happen at 9:00am US Central on Thursdays. There will also be a new teams link to use — I’ll post that as part of the agenda next week. Have a good weekend!

This week we’ll look at a revised version of the interaction diagrams I first brought up last week, and as a secondary topic may also dip into implementation scenarios for existing systems, based on some discussions I had this week with the folks at Solenium. I hope to see you at the usual time (10:00am… Continue reading Technical Call Agenda 2022-02-18

This week we’ll go over our plans for the final release of the spec, as well as some visuals I created to illustrate the plan creation workflow. I’d like to get some thoughts on where this belongs (in the spec document, on this blog, both?) and identify what other visuals would really help fill out… Continue reading Technical Call Agenda 2022-02-11

Luke and I have been pulled into overlapping meetings this week and won’t be able to emcee tomorrow. We’ll cancel the technical call for this week. Thank you for last week’s discussions, and I look forward to next week!

This week we’ll go over the data broker scenario some more to see if there are further suggestions, corrections, or clarifications to make. We’ll also discuss the 1.0-PREVIEW release and how we should publish a wider announcement, and what implementation scenarios and resources we might turn to next. I hope to see you at the… Continue reading Technical Call Agenda 2022-01-28

Over the last two weeks we’ve been discussing specific implementations, and one of the more complicated scenarios deserves a post here: data brokers. When we say data broker, what we mean is an intermediary who specializes in providing persistent, reliable “data hosting” for providers. Most suppliers are not going to have the in-house team, resources,… Continue reading Data Brokers and Sandpiper

Our call is on for today, Friday the 21st of January 2022, at our usual time, 10:00am US Central. We’ll discuss the updates from this week as well as implementation scenarios for Sandpiper — in general our technical calls are now going to skew more towards implementation, until we get to 1.0 proper, after which… Continue reading Technical Call Agenda 2022-01-21

After some more discussions on the technical call, and excellent questions from the team at APA Engineering, I’ve filled out more of the Plan and Interaction Model sections of the documentation. In particular I’ve described how every Actor should have a persistent UUID as opposed to objects in the Data Model. It’s an important point… Continue reading Updates and the Road to 1.0
