Requirement
-
GPR-022 — Internationalization Support Classification: The Submission SHALL identify the degree of internationalization support provided by the proposed specification using one of the classifications defined in this section
Internationalization Classifications
| Classification | Meaning |
|---|---|
| a) Uncategorized | Internationalization has not been considered |
| b) Specific to <region name> | The proposed specification supports the customs of the specified region only and does not guarantee support for the customs of any other region. Any fault or error arising from requesting services outside a context in which the customs of the specified region are consistently followed is the responsibility of the requester |
| c) Specific to <multiple region names> | The proposed specification supports the customs of the specified regions only and does not guarantee support for the customs of any other region. Any fault or error arising from requesting services outside a context in which the customs of at least one specified region are consistently followed is the responsibility of the requester |
| d) Explicitly not specific to <region name> or <region names> | The proposed specification does not support the customs of the specified region or regions. Any fault or error arising from requesting services in a context where the customs of an excluded region are observed is the responsibility of the requester |
Notes for Editors
GPR-022 is a mandatory requirement.
The four classifications are permitted values used to satisfy GPR-022. They are not separate requirements and should not receive individual requirement identifiers.
A Submission selects the classification that accurately describes its internationalization support and supplies the applicable region names when selecting classification b, c, or d.
The classifications are reproduced from the OMG general requirements. Before publication, confirm their wording and completeness against the current OMG RFP boilerplate.
After the Annex C record is created and reviewed, replace the locally maintained Statement with a transclusion of its authoritative Statement.
