RE: Issue 27: correction of the description of the Coverage in Linked Data deliverable

Ø  ISO-19123-2 (the soon to be published ISO version of the OGC Coverage Implementation Schema 1.1)?

‘soon to be published’ is optimistic.
It is not yet on the ISO/TC 211 program of work [1].
The duration from NWIP (New Work Item Proposal) to IS (International Standard) is never less than 3 years, even if there is a mature starting document.

Subject: Issue 27: correction of the description of the Coverage in Linked Data deliverable

Issue 27<http://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/track/issues/27> is a special one, because it is about one of the deliverables. The Coverage in Linked Data deliverable<http://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/charter#cov> reads "The WG will develop a formal Recommendation for expressing discrete coverage data conformant to the ISO 19123 abstract model. ..."

Peter explained that this statement probably requires some adjustment, see this message<https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sdw-wg/2015Apr/0024.html>, otherwise the deliverable will not have the proper foundation.

Do I understand correctly that is is a matter of saying that the Recommendation will not be based on ISO-19123, but on ISO-19123-2 (the soon to be published ISO version of the OGC Coverage Implementation Schema 1.1)?

We can not change the charter text, but we could add a clarification (a note) in the chapter about deliverables in the UCR document (Ed, Kerry or Phil: is that correct?).

If the assumption above are correct, could someone suggest a good wording for the note that should be added?
