1. Progress towards OpenMI 2 Beta release

1.1. Documentation updates

The three documents, "What's new in OpenMI 2.0", "OpenMI 'in a nutshell'" and "The OpenMI Standard2 interface specification" are ready.
Stef will produced pdfs, and will remove previous versions of the documentation to the depricated part.
(thumbs up) Has been done, finished July 12th.

1.2. Source code documentation

Stef will take care that the java and the C# documentation are more or less the same (minor textual differences still exist).
(thumbs up) Has been done, finished July 9th.
(warning) the Reference Manual yet has to be generated (action Standa)
(thumbs up) Standa will indeed regenerates the document, and will remove the "<see ref=..." etc. texts.

(added by Stef when finishing the beta release documentation)

Description

List/IEnumerable

At some places IBaseOutput (e.g. Consumers) C#-version returns a list, java an iterator

open

(question)
(Rob) Change to List and document it is unmodifiable.

Initialize(arguments)

In the C#-version, the arguments argument still has to be removed from Initialize()

open

(question)
(Rob) Change it, this was already agreed upon.

Compliancy xsd

The compliancy xsd still is based on 1.4. Must be extended

open

(question)
(Rob) How much work is this?

Availability loop approach

The Nut Shell document mentions the loop approach as available but discouraged, whereas the other documents state that it is not available.
(Peter) The other docs also state, that the base interfaces can easily be extended with the loop approach and that it is planned.

open

(question)
(Rob) The intention is still to have it, right? So I would go with the Nut Shell version.
(Peter) ... would prefer the easy extension version

Discussions:

  1. Loop Approach: Update Nut Shell document to indicate that loop approach is currently not available but will be there as an extension. Pull approach is available now, other options are under investigation by the OpenMI TC. Adrian will update the Nut Shell document.
  1. Compliancy XSD: Stef will have a look and make some updates. Introduce the concept of extensions and a description field for exchange items. Make as minor changes to the XSD as possible. Fix the lenght typo.
