    Dear Peter and Simon,
    As you know, we are close to completing the draft of the Implementation
    Guidelines for the Principles on the Legal Interoperability of Research
    Data. The draft Principles themselves were completed earlier this year.
    The RDA-CODATA Interest Group co-chairs and members have discussed in our
    weekly conference calls the process and schedule for your organizations’
    review. We propose to send both documents to RDA and CODATA for review by
    Friday, December 4. We would like to have all review comments for the
    consideration and further work of the RDA-CODATA Interest Group by the
    middle of January, say, Monday, the 11th. We can then respond to all review
    comments and make any revisions in time for the P7 RDA conference in Japan
    in early March. We also will send the documents for informal review on the
    same schedule to several legal experts that the members of the Interest
    Group themselves identify.
    Our intention is to test the Principles and Implementation Guidelines after
    the P7 meeting with some research data consortia and projects that are
    affiliated with your organizations and that are willing to try them out.
    Their experiences and input will be valuable for finalizing the documents
    by P8 and then releasing them more generally to the research community. We
    would expect to actively disseminate them internationally in the months
    after P8.
    At this point, we would like to get your views in writing on this suggested
    process and schedule. If we could get your responses by Monday, November
    23rd, we could discuss them in our weekly telephone conference calls and
    iterate any possible questions or discrepancies with you prior to
    submitting the documents for your review on December the 4th.
    Best wishes,
    Paul, Enrique, and Bob, and the members of the RDA-CODATA Interest Group
