 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +A [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:n:node|Node]] becomes a Qualified Node when an authorized qualification process determines that the Node satisfies the criteria applicable to a defined governed function, scope, and operating context.
 +
 +The qualification criteria address the characteristics relevant to the governed function. These characteristics include applicable interface, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:s:semantic|semantic]], policy, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:e:evidence|Evidence]], [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:s:security|Security]], residency, sovereignty, operational, and service-level criteria.
 +
 +Qualification supports trust, provider comparison, [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:cost|Cost]] attribution, compensation eligibility, and settlement. It prevents an unverified or unsuitable Node from receiving authorization or compensation for governed work.
 +
 +Qualification also supports competition among implementations. Different Nodes compete to perform the same governed function when each Node satisfies the applicable qualification criteria and produces the required Evidence.
 +
 +The qualification record identifies:
 +
 +  * The Qualified Node
 +  * The governed function
 +  * The applicable qualification criteria
 +  * The operating context
 +  * The applicable jurisdiction
 +  * The qualifying [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:a:authority|Authority]]
 +  * The qualification method
 +  * The supporting Evidence
 +  * The qualification date
 +  * The validity period
 +  * Any limitations or conditions
 +  * The applicable [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:v:version|Version]]
 +  * The applicable [[dido:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:configuration|Configuration]]
 +
 +A material change to the Node, its Configuration, its operating context, or the applicable qualification criteria initiates the defined review or requalification process.

 +
 +===== Note =====
 +
 +A Qualified Node differs from a running Node:
 +
 +  * A running Node has an operational presence
 +  * A Qualified Node has recognized eligibility for a defined governed function, scope, and operating context
 +
 +Qualification establishes eligibility to perform governed work. Qualification does not establish that the Qualified Node completed a particular item of work.
 +
 +Evidence of completed work supports attribution, compensation, and settlement for that item of work.
 +
 +Qualification applies only within its defined scope, operating context, validity period, and conditions. Qualification for one governed function does not establish qualification for another governed function.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +An authorized qualification process evaluates a sanctions-screening Node against the policy, Evidence, residency, Security, interface, and service-level criteria applicable within a defined jurisdiction.
 +
 +The resulting qualification record identifies the Node, governed function, jurisdiction, Configuration, Version, validity period, applicable criteria, and supporting Evidence.
 +
 +The Node is a Qualified Node for sanctions-screening work within that defined scope. The qualification does not establish that the Node completed any particular sanctions-screening request.
