<br>
1. Preparation for the Digital Manufacturing Day on October 21st at
the SC4 meeting in Baltimore. We now have a poster, schedule and
registration form.<br>

<br>
2. Preparation of an "integrated model for digital manufacturing" as
AP238 Edition 2. The following are goals for the new edition:<br>
a. More flexible so that it can associate GD&T data to many
manufacturing definitions including those of AP242, AP224, ISO
14649, ISO 13399, MTConnect and QIF.<br>
b. More concise by not including mappings for one preferred set of
definitions and instead re-using definitions from external
standards.<br>
c. More complete by including the enhancements determined during the
ten years of testing including in-process models, via-points for
tool paths, and non-rotational control (tape heads).<br>
<br>
The new standard should be substantially smaller, substantially more
powerful and upward compatible with the existing standard. It should
take advantage of the latest developments in STEP technology
including the new edition of Partv21 and modular reuse of
definitions. It should be finished in two years with the first year
spent gathering the requirements, and the second year spent
validating the implementation.<br>
<br>
3. Teams for preparing the day and edition:<br>
a. The publicity and promotion team should finalize the schedule and
promote the event to internal and external organizations. <br>
b. The Edition 2 drafting team should prepare a draft of the new
edition so that it can be reviewed by all interested parties well
before the meeting.<br>
<br>
I propose Sid Venkatesh as the leader of the promotion and publicity
team with assistance from Bob Erickson, Jim Kosmala, Larry
Maggiano, Tom Raun and Alain Brail. Peter Benson who is organizing
the SC4 meeting, and Paul Van Exel who manages the industry days for
SC4 will be available to help. <br>
<br>
I propose myself as the leader of the drafting team with assistance
from Mikael Hedlind, David Odendahl, David Loffredo, Bengt Olsson
and Charles Gilman.<br>
<br>
4. Starting the "Mind the Gap Project" - report back from the
opening of the DMDII.<br>
<br>
Martin Hardwick<br>
Team Leader ISO STEP-Manufacturing<br>
