This GitHub repository is designed to be used as a basis for official OGC documents. It is based on the GeoPackage specification. With this repository the OGC invites collaboration and comments directed at the development and enhancement of this candidate standard.
The repo tracks the latest version of the specification as it evolves. Pull requests for fixes are appreciated, and new functionality will still be considered even though version 1.0 has been adopted. The spec is done in asciidoc a format supported by GitHub, similar to markdown but with some features that make it better for specifications, like automatic section numbering.
The contributor understands that any contributions, if accepted by the OGC Membership, shall be incorporated into the formal OGC GeoPackage standards document and that all copyright and intellectual property shall be vested to the OGC.

OGC is accepting public comments and suggested revisions to the specification via GitHub. To suggest changes to the specification please fork the repository and submit a pull request with the desired changes. Please make one pull request per logical requested change and be sure to include a comment in the PR with any justification or reasoning on why the change is needed.
For more general comments (that don't include actual text changes to the spec) please create a GitHub issue for that topic.
Complex changes and feature requests must go through the change request process. The details entered in the change request form will help OGC adjudicate and prioritize the request.
For more detailed guidance, or if you are new to GitHub, see the Process page for additional information on editing.
