## 4-1 Current State of OHDF

* Capture and formalize current OHDF schema
* Current suggestion: use [NIST Metaschema](https://pages.nist.gov/metaschema/)
* Open call for other suggestions from TC
* _Update after the meeting: Issue [Decide on how to describe the OHDF model and provide data format specific schemata](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/ohdf/issues/7) created_
* Resolves open PR on [Seed Contribution InSpecJS Schemas](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/ohdf/pull/4)
* Stefan explains the rationale behind the contribution
* Develop the next data elements to be established for OHDF v1.0 draft
* Current suggestions:
* "[Target Data](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/ohdf/issues/8)" - the system to which the OHDF data pertains
* "[Overall Control Status](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/ohdf/issues/9)" - dictates the "final" state of the control after all post-processing (attestations, waivers, etc.) is applied; can be used to override control state via attestations and waivers
* "[Run Identifier](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/ohdf/issues/10)" - a UUID of some kind to differentiate the same OHDF-formatted scan run against the same target multiple times
* Resolves issues raised by users regarding OHDF not having any IDs for individual runs
* "[Adjudicated Control](https://github.com/oasis-tcs/ohdf/issues/11)" - boolean which is flipped to True if the Overall Control Status was changed by an attestation or waiver
* Resolves concerns that attestations and waivers could be a "thumb on the scale" that would not be clear from the OHDF data
* Stefan to move these suggestions to issues and write to TC email list that these can be discussed in the next meeting
* _Update after the meeting: Issues created and linked to the list items above_

## 4-3 Next datatype integration research
