The O³neida Compliance Profile Working Group has been reconstituted and is now open for full membership to O³neida and O3neida Europe members. For a limited time (until April 30, 2008) non-members of O³neida and O3neida Europe are also invited to participate on a trial basis.

Trial category participants will have full member rights through April 30, 2008 at which point non O³neida and O3neida Europe members will receive limited access rights to this collaboration work platform.

Deliverables of the Workgroup - detailed compliance profiles - will be available free of charge to all O³neida and O3neida Europe members for their own personal and professional use.

Rights of resale or transfer to non members of O³neida and O3neida Europe are not permitted without the written consent of Allan Martel, COO O³neida Inc.

Non-members can approach Allan Martel COO of O³neida to negotiate terms for access to the compliance profiles. These negotiations will be conducted on a case-by-case basis.

There will be a special session on the IEC 61499 Compliance Profiles at the INDIN '08 conference in Korea in July, 2008.

This work platform contains the call for papers as well as the first response to the call - a proposal from Christoph Suender to deliver as paper at the Special Session.

This platform should be used to coordinate the different topics for this INDIN '08 Special Session and to identify people interested in contributing from particular areas of specialisation.

Invitations for membership to this collaborative working platform are controlled by O³neida Inc. and all invitations must be approved by Allan Martel COO O³neida Inc.

Should you wish to propose inviting a colleague, please contact Allan Martel at allanmartel@oooneida.org .

No reasonable requests for expanding the group will be refused.

This Collaborative Working Platform is provided through O³neida and O3neida Europe as part of the services offered to members of both organisations. Experience indicates that the platform is an effective facilitator for international projects development.

Any O³neida Inc. or O3neida Europe member interested in developing a similar platform for O³neida and O3neida Europe - related activities should contact Allan Martel to establish a new platform. This can be done very quickly and at no cost to the proposing member.

Finally, storage space on this site is limited with costs incurred as space requirements increase. O³neida Inc. will monitor space usage and negotiate with site administrators the transfer of files to externally-linked ftp servers and/or an increase in storage space as required.
