Purpose
The purpose of the GSWG Governance Architecture Task Force (GATF) is to draft a TSS (ToIP Standard Specification) that defines the standard requirements for all ToIP-compatible governance frameworks regardless of their level in the ToIP stack. Note: this is meant to be a counterpart to a ToIP Technical Architecture TSS deliverable from the Technical Stack WG.
Deliverables
- ToIP Governance Architecture TSS—a specification of the requirements that any ToIP-compatible governance framework must meet. Some requirements are expected to be layer-independent while others will depend on the specific ToIP layer the governance framework is intended to govern. The Pre-Draft Deliverable is here (Google doc format).
- One component of this TSS is the ToIP Governance Metamodel. See this wiki page for the proposed structure. Comments gladly accepted!
