    • inconsistencies in the documentation

    • inconsistencies in implementation

    • inconsistencies between rules and schematron rules

    • difficulties in understanding what has changed

    • difficulties in finding links between the different layers

    • difficulties in finding differences between the different specialisations

  • Examples were given for each of the above categories

  • Different options were discussed on how to handle the above concerns.

  • Erwin explained that the PoAC CMB has authority over the PINT base layer but the PA's have authority over their specialisation.

  • The PoAC CMB has no authority over the review of the specialisations as such.

  • Withdrawing the member review is not within the authority of the PoAC CMB.

  • The PoAC CMB has authority over the publication.

  • The CMB members agreed that the best way forward is to send in comments about the raised concerns.

  • OO and the PA's will need to address these before final publication.

  • The PoAC CMB will at that moment in time have to evaluate if concerns and remarks are sufficiently addressed or not.

  • As Erwin already mentioned in the beginning of the meeting, the availability of resources will have to be considered as well.
