Subject: Development meeting II proposal

Hello all,

I would like to propose a second XCCDF developer meeting to be held in two weeks. The time and duration of the last meeting appeared to work, so let's plan on starting at 3:00 PM, Eastern Time, and running for 90 minutes. If you have a preference, please respond to me ([hidden email]) and let me know which of the following days works best for you: Tues Sept 8, Wed Sept 9, or Thurs Sept 10. I will send a final schedule and dial-in number later this week. Please respond by close-of-business on Thursday if you have a preference on dates.

I propose this meeting focus on how to identify versions of checks. Specifically, how (or if) a check-content-ref should identify the version of a check to call and how (if) a rule-result should reliably identify the check that produced the recorded result. I have attached an initial write-up and proposal to this email. I encourage people to read and discuss the issue and proposal over the mailing list ahead of time. (Especially if you are aware of an issue that you feel makes any such changes infeasible for your organization.)

As always, comments or suggestions regarding these meetings are welcome.

Thanks,
Charles Schmidt
