CCA Specification
CCA specifications are written in the Scientific Interface Definition Language (SIDL) which is the input language to
Babel.
An archive of older CCA specifications is available
here.
Process
A new, multi-stage specification process was approved in 2007 by
Motion53 on
Quorum. Implementation started in early
2008. The three main elements of this change are:
- Multi-stage standardization process
- Task Forces with clearly defined charter and chair to shepherd changes through the process.
- CCA Review Board ( CCARB ): to oversee task forces.
