Colleagues,
I have included Olaf’s block diagram (in jpg since I
don’t have Visio) in place of the earlier version. I also included
the second SDL block diagram at the end of the document in the Use Case section
(4.2). Is this the right location for this diagram?
I generally agree with Sadatoshi’s note (and Olaf’s
response) about duplicating MSC functions. However, I think somehow
we need to capture those functions as “shall” statements in the IDC
specification.
Can we get some guidance from the commercial sector on this?
Is it better/would you prefer to simply incorporate by reference the MSC functional
requirements or “translate” them into a functional/performance specification
(which could be used in a tender or request for proposal)?
We are now two weeks away from our meeting in St. Germain en
Laye. Please get your comments/recommendations to me as soon as you
can. I will make every effort to get them all incorporated in time for
the meeting.
Best regards
