From the minutes of the UBL TC meeting in Montreal 19 August 2009: COMMENT DISPOSITION: CUSTOMIZATION GUIDELINES PUBLIC REVIEW 2 The only relevant comment received in the public review period was from GKH: A customization should document its calculation model, as Denmark and BII do. An OASIS TC is developing a formalism (test assertions) that could be used for specifying calculation models. The question is: do we bring this to the attention of customizers, that they should document the calculation model? http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/200905/msg00000.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/200906/msg00001.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/200906/msg00002.html http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl-comment/200907/msg00000.html AGREED to add a short new section 1.5 (page 14) as follows: Calculation models The UBL Technical Committee does not prescribe a calculation model that governs how values in instances are calculated (for example, the inclusion of allowances in a line extension amount). Any actual implementation of UBL should document its calculation model via a prose description or a formal description using, for example, the methodology being developed by the OASIS Test Assertion Guidelines Technical Committee. This disposes of the 22 May 2009 comment from G. Ken Holman. AGREED to resubmit the edited CG for another 15-review.

Document name: AGREED to change the title to "UBL 2 Guidelines for Customization, First Edition" because: - This edition doesn't apply to UBL 1.0 - This edition does apply to UBL 2.0 - Second Edition will apply to 2.1, but may also apply to 2.2, 2.3, etc. The revised document, ready for its third public review, has been uploaded to: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/33852/UBL-Customization100prd03.doc This will be on the agenda of UBL TC meetings in September.
