## Minutes

Eran and Jim participated today. We discussed the current state of the OSLC-OP TSC activities. The following is a summary from Jim's notes.

OSLC-OP has reached a level of maturity with many published OASIS standard specifications.

There is still broad vendor and end user interests. However, progress on new specifications and updates has been slow due to lack of contribution.

For 2026, we should focus on a few high-priority, high-interest deliverables and get the published and implemented. Key priorities should be:
1. LDM
2. PLM (pending sufficient involvement and contribution)

Link Discovery Management - PSD01 is published but is significantly out of date. PSD02 is in progress. MID has client and server implementations. We need more reviewsrs and implementors, especially. LDM support for ELM LQE would be very useful.

Next action: publish PSD02

Link Validity Service - We have some progress on concepts, but no published PSD revision. Needs reviewers and potential implementers.

Next action: review and publish PSD01, and poll for potential implementers.

Config Management 1.1 - We have a WD for change set delivery and history, that needs review and publish a PSD. Progress depends on vendor contribution and potential implementations.

OMG SysML FTF2 passed without updates for the OSLC REST API. OMG SysML v2 RTF has been chartered. There is work remaining, but no one to do it. Needs vendor participation and commitment to implement.

Linking Profile - PND01 has been approved for publication. Waiting for OASIS to publish. Pending any further feedback and updates, this could be progressed to PN01 by the OSLC-OP PGB.

SysML OSLC Server - There is a straight forward draft spec derived from the OSLC Architecture Management spec specifying the requirements for a SysML OSLC server. The vocabulary and resource shape constraints are managed by OMG and were generated from the SysML.ecore file. Those documents were approved by OMG in FTF2 and should be reference by OASIS SysML OSLC server.

The current WD specification has not been updated to use OMG namespaces and vocab and shape resources.
The namespace URL reference is to the open-services.net/ns/sysml namespace, not OMG.
OMG has not implemented any namespace support.

This is ready to start moving through the OASIS standards process, but needs to contribution from potential implementations to progress.

OSLC PLM Server - A WD specification derived from the OSLC Architecture Management specification has been created that defines Part and PartUsage resources representing a PLM BOM for linking ALM and PLM resources.

This is pending review by PLM vendors and then published as a PSD. Progress depends on contribution and potential implementers.

### PGB

### Linking Profile Project Note

OASIS has still not yet published the approved PND01.

Eran will review the current PND01

### PLM Specification

No update this week.

### Configuration Management 1.1 specification

Pending input from potential implementers.

### Link Validity Service

### Link Discovery Management

Jim will review Eran's changes and start getting the spec ready to publish PSD02.

### SysML OSLC Server Specification

Pending input from potential implementers.

## Action items

- [ ] TSC members should review these LDM issues, and be prepared to vote on the proposed resolution in preparation for publishing a revised PSD:
- [ ] [LDM may be underspecified in how it determines incoming links](https://github.com/oslc-op/oslc-specs/issues/631)
- [ ] [Need to agree on the LDM POST entity request and response body formats](https://github.com/oslc-op/oslc-specs/issues/619)
