Next round of consultation on 1.03 proposed changes

[Borrowdale Consulting]

Dear all

Our technical team has now finished preparatory work on the proposed version 1.03 upgrade to the IATI activities standard and related code lists. The IATI TAG Secretariat has extended the consultation times and subsequent dates in the change control process due to delays in the original schedule caused by work on the common standard and implementation schedules and the IATI Annual Report.You will see the revised timings on the Wiki - http://wiki.iatistandard.org/standard/revision/1.03/start

Proposed changes to the standard in single table format can be found at http://bit.ly/ZUltsK, and the code lists at http://bit.ly/XE9eQV. In both these tables new items are highlights in green, and modifications to existing items are in yellow.

XMLworkings can be found at http://wiki.iatistandard.org/standard/revision/1.03/changes_specification

Discussion on these changes continues on the Knowledge Base at http://support.iatistandard.org/forums/21675117-1-03-Decimal-Upgrade. Those items included in the upgrade are flagged as "Planned." We welcome your comments on each of these topics.

The current phase of consultation will end on  23 April, extended to accommodate the Easter break.

As always thank you for your input and your patience with the delays to this process over the last couple of weeks.

Happy Easter!

cheers

Kim
