Wendy,

Here is the draft used for the final ballot to approve 11179-3 (Ed3).  When the freely available published edition is up, I will let you know.  It is possible some minor editorial changes were inserted to the final document.

Yours,
Dan

Unfortunately, the document is not yet on the freely available site under ISO.  The basic ideas behind management of concepts are incorporated in 11179-3 Ed3, and I believe this advance makes this edition critical to developing the DDI.

You will find a document on Mantis Issue 543 entitled Purpose of DataElement in DDI.docx. Please review this document and make comments back to the list. There are a number of issues in 3.2PR that need in-depth discussion. DataElement is the first of these. Our intent is to begin an on-line discussion among interested parties, attempt to find an area of concensus and then set up conference calls to finalize the details. Please note that this email has been copied to the DDI-SRG list and DDI-Users list in order to inform others of this discussion and to identify persons who should be involved further in the discussion.

Note that we are dealing with fine tuning what was proposed in DDI 3.2PR and therefore you will need to have a familiarity with ISO/IEC 11179-3 and/or the maintenance of DataElements for these discussions to be of benefit to you and to DDI.
> Having said that, I wish you to know that I am very happy to address any specific questions or related issues you may have with this discussion of DataElements.
