6 Releases of an OTD

The secretariat of a DMO shall incorporate additions and changes to concepts into its OTD master database as they are approved.

Any of the procedures in clause 7 may result in a change to an OTD's master database. This part allows the DMO to set a release schedule as long as it meets a minimum requirement. A DMO could make releases as frequently as once a day.

A DMO shall determine a schedule for formal release and publish a formal release containing everything in the master database as of the stated release date and time. A secretariat shall publish a formal release of its OTD at least once a year.

NOTE 1  This is the maximum time between formal releases. A DMO could make formal releases as frequently as once a day.

The secretariat of a DMO shall make the formal release of its OTD available through the DMO's website. The secretariat shall notify members of the VC, the registered consensus organizations, and the DMO's parent organization, if any, of each formal release of the DMO.

NOTE 2  As required in ISO 22745-1, the OTD will be available through a public query interface. Details of the query interface are given in ISO/TS 22745-14. The DMO may make the OTD available in other formats, e.g., the XML format defined in ISO/TS 22745-10.

Each release of the OTD shall be assigned a version number, which shall be higher than the numbers assigned to previously released versions.
