Proposed Roadmap


With Productization on track to land at end of Q1, the expectation is that Q2 will be focused on implementations and feedback from those implementations driving further standards.  
Target Items for Q2
API
  • Expand the broadcast API or introduce a new channels API to support the context setting use case. 
  • Publish npm package with FDC3 API definitions.
App Directory
  • Unify object representations of intents and applications.
  • Formalize the addressing of apps specific to platform domains.
Context Data
  • Pivot to JSON schema for representing type definitions. We have found that TypeScript is too implementation-specific and too restrictive in practice.
  • Use https://quicktype.io/ to generate type definitions from JSON schema for multi-language support.
  • Formalise current example types into official fdc3 types for contact, organisation, instrument etc.
Intents
  • Add detailed documentation to each intent - linking to use cases
  • Align closer with Context Data WG
  • Evaluate real use cases, given that we have input from early adapters
  • Extend with new intents, based on above + accepted use cases

Use Cases

  • Continue to process new and existing FDC3 Use Cases
Backlog Beyond Q2
  • Define the next set of FDC3 Context Data types in conjunction with/based on Financial Objects working group work.
  • Work with Financial Objects and other FINOS programs to reach consensus on how to make standardized taxonomies available for consumption, both for viewing/editing and programmatically e.g. for validation. 
  • Create comprehensive examples of use cases that show how to use the various FDC3 standards together to enable interoperability.
