Dear James and Colleages,

I am satisfied with the current CIF-JSON draft, but I am uncertain what the significance of COMCIFS’s approval would be.  Why are we considering this step?

Regards,

John

Subject: CIF-JSON draft standard

Dear COMCIFS,
The cif-developers mailing list has developed a standard for expressing CIF information in JSON form.  The resulting draft is available at https://comcifs.github.io/cif-json<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcomcifs.github.io%2Fcif-json&data=01%7C01%7CJohn.Bollinger%40stjude.org%7Cfc5e0c10293746b2d08a08d4a2433350%7C22340fa892264871b677d3b3e377af72%7C0&sdata=SjHKghqSXFIZZIkc0%2FkBC26xdE1HZclKjIk7XfVxO%2Bc%3D&reserved=0> .

The discussions around the development of this standard are available in the cif-developers archive: http://www.iucr.org/iucr-top/lists/cif-developers/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.iucr.org%2Fiucr-top%2Flists%2Fcif-developers%2F&data=01%7C01%7CJohn.Bollinger%40stjude.org%7Cfc5e0c10293746b2d08a08d4a2433350%7C22340fa892264871b677d3b3e377af72%7C0&sdata=vcW4wMyjdzsxT0UL%2FXdbFrWeo0fNXN51jMaBb8Z16kM%3D&reserved=0>
If no substantial issues are raised here in the next 6 weeks, this standard will be considered to have been approved by COMCIFS.  Any substantial change to the standard will be routed through the cif-developers list (which anybody may join) before being returned here for final approval.  I propose that the approval period is reduced to 3 weeks for any subsequent drafts.

James Hester (chair)
