| - | The roadmap for the writing of new Discussion Papers or the updating of existing ones will be decided by the group as a whole during its meetings. It will then be presented by one or more of the co-chairs at the quarterly meeting of the OMG's Middleware and Related Services (MARS) Task Force, in order to prepare MARS for review, approval and issuance of the papers. | + | The roadmap for the writing of new Discussion Papers or the updating of existing ones will be decided by the group as a whole during its meetings. The workflow for each paper will conclude with: |
| + | * the preparation of an "external draft" for review by anyone (including non-OMG members) who cares to comment | ||
| + | * a four-week review period directed at the members of the appropriate OMG Task Force (for technically-oriented papers, it will be the Middleware and Related Services [MARS] Task Force) | ||
| + | * a short presentation of the paper, with a summary of edits made as a result of the review, to the Task Force members | ||
| + | * a Task Force vote to issue the papers. | ||
| + | |||
| + | In general, the last two steps will take place during an in-person Task Force meeting during an OMG Technical Meeting week. In exceptional cases, this may be replaced by an e-mail vote if the Task Force chairs agree, to avoid delaying the paper. | ||

| - | - A new **Practical Guide to Cloud Deployment Technologies.** The leader is Karl Scott (Satori Consulting). The kick-off conference call occurred on 24 October 2018 with about 50 participants. Once this paper exists, it may supersede technology considerations in some other papers, which will need to be revised accordingly. | + | | **Practical Guide to Cloud Service Agreements, v3.0** | Anil Sharma (IBM) and Paddy Padmanabhan (Damo Consulting), with additional support from Claude Baudoin | | 20-Jan-2019 | Late February (e-mail vote of the MARS Task Force) | |

| - | - Version 3 of the **Practical Guide to Cloud Service Agreements.** This effort was launched on 31 October 2018, with a kick-off conference call attended by about 40 participants.

| - | All three papers are scheduled to have their final review and approval in Q1 2019. The first and third paper above will be subject to an e-mail vote by the MARS Task Force in February, while the paper on Cloud Governance will go in front of the Task Force during its regular meeting in Reston. | + | When new papers are released, they may supersede similar considerations previously included in some other papers, in which case those will need to be revised accordingly in due time. |

David Harris and Beniamino Di Martino are the initial champions of this proposal. | + | * The December 2018 meeting also raised the potential need to revise the **Interoperability Paper**, even though it is relatively recent (December 2017), in order to add a new scenario about data migration, and mention //interoperability patterns//.

| - | A new paper on **Cyber Insurance and the Cloud** may be proposed as an alternative to developing a large section on this topic within the Practical Guide to CSAs. | + | * A new paper, suggested by Karen Shunk (OMG) that would inherit work previously done by the ARTS Council (now the OMG Retail Domain Task Force or RDTF). This would be branded as a joint paper of the RDTF and CWG, and would go through the RDTF for approval. Tentative title: **Practical Guide to Cloud Adoption in Retail**. The focus would be on retail use cases, so that it would not repeat the content of other papers, but point to those papers instead. |
