Extension content development

@Matt Cordell

• Matt - Confluence page documenting at a high level extension content that has already been developed by members.

  • MCO raised the survey page had similarities to what was being requested and the need for further work, though happy to progress if required.

  • Group response on doing anything further:

    • LPA: Request that a new page be set up (using the information on survey page) with refinement of the current information as required to with more information added as required e.g. hierarchies.

      • Multi browser - potential to include functionality like what is available for the International content daily build.

    • MCO Concepts not easy to identify. Thought an extract of the extension content into a spreadsheet may be easier to review.

      • Willing to follow up on this item and speak to Rory and feedback to group. Was initially looking for a query that could be used.

    • CRI: Any tooling requests would need to go through the process like the Member Forum process. Clarification on how to do this from an Advisory Group perspective would need to be considered.

      • Need to consider how this ties into the two groups set up in October that came out of the combined CMAG/MF discussion. LMA and RDA to be advised on this discussion.

      • LPA asked for an update on the plans for the working group LMA is running. CRI to follow up with LMA.

  • International Descriptive statistics page raised during this discussion:

    • EWO: Has found the the Descriptive Statistics page very useful in getting a heads up on the upcoming release.
