Demo of new online tools
- A test version of the online tools is available at http://52.32.53.255/

Schema Generation
- Overview of current process
- RDF OWL document is the base format used to generate all other documents
- OWL document is kept manually in sync with spec with the spec being the source of record
- Desire to change process in the future
- Automatically keep document and OWL documents in sync
- Have a different mechanism for describing the constraints that is more convenient than OWL
- OMG is using OWL and SHACL
- SHAX is another possibility
- David is working on a graph language that may help – will keep us up to date

- Currently, principle stated that documents are focused on facts
- Some of the proposals for new profile introduce things that are not necessary facts
- Proposal to extend Relationship to include things that may not be facts
- Proposal to add Annotations to capture assertions about information in the document.
