WHAT REMAINS — Final Revision
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
This file tracks the status of all identified gaps and remaining
|
|
work after the gap-closure revision.
|
|
|
|
All seven gaps from the external review have been addressed. This file
|
|
documents their status and any residual items.
|
|
|
|
|
|
GAP CLOSURE STATUS
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
1. Constitutional governance layer CLOSED
|
|
OE-0011 (Amendment) now defines a two-tier amendment process.
|
|
Technical content follows the standard workflow.
|
|
Governance content (Laws, Editorial Principles, Status Lifecycle)
|
|
requires: (a) standard editorial gate, (b) no precision reduction,
|
|
(c) two independent reviewers, (d) no contradiction with Accepted
|
|
documents. OE-0000 references this. The "Constitutional Gap"
|
|
acknowledgment has been removed — the gap is filled.
|
|
|
|
2. "Bedrock" and "Evolution" term collisions CLOSED
|
|
"Evolution" renamed to "Amendment" — it describes a formal change
|
|
process, which is the standard term in standards bodies. File
|
|
renamed from oe-0011-evolution.md to oe-0011-amendment.md. All
|
|
cross-references updated.
|
|
"Bedrock" retains its name with two mitigations: (a) OE-0001 now
|
|
defines it precisely and includes a Term Collision Note
|
|
acknowledging the geotechnical meaning and providing "reality
|
|
basis" as an unambiguous synonym. (b) OE-0002 lists it as
|
|
"Bedrock (reality basis)." This is how standards handle term
|
|
collision — define the term of art and note the collision.
|
|
|
|
3. Conformance testing criteria CLOSED
|
|
OE-0000 now defines ten testable conformance criteria:
|
|
(1) Field Completeness, (2) Decision Specificity,
|
|
(3) Observation Traceability, (4) Constraint Bounding,
|
|
(5) Alternatives Plural, (6) Verification Against Reality,
|
|
(7) Reasoning References Alternatives, (8) Lineage Traceability,
|
|
(9) Assumption Awareness, (10) No Contradiction. Three compliance
|
|
levels are defined: compliant, compliant-with-resolution-needed,
|
|
non-compliant.
|
|
|
|
4. Empirical claims reframed CLOSED
|
|
OE-0000 now contains a "Testable Hypotheses" section with three
|
|
formal hypotheses: (1) Context Preservation — OE-compliant
|
|
records reduce re-derivation time. (2) Translation — translated
|
|
principles demonstrate equal or greater durability. (3) Thread
|
|
Integrity — conformance-compliant records enable reasoning
|
|
reconstruction. All are stated as testable predictions requiring
|
|
empirical validation, not as proven assertions.
|
|
|
|
5. Historical citations CLOSED
|
|
Antikythera example now cites:
|
|
- Freeth, T. et al. (2021). *Scientific Reports*, 11, 5823.
|
|
- de Solla Price, D. (1974). *Transactions of the American
|
|
Philosophical Society*, 64(7).
|
|
|
|
6. Philosophical realism objection CLOSED
|
|
OE-0001 Bedrock section now includes a "Methodological
|
|
Commitment" subsection: the standard requires testing models
|
|
against observable outcomes (methodological) but does not
|
|
require practitioners to hold a specific philosophical position
|
|
about the nature of reality (ontological). Compatible with
|
|
both realism and pragmatism.
|
|
|
|
7. Contemporary examples CLOSED
|
|
Two new example files added:
|
|
- examples/software-auth-context.md (database schema selection,
|
|
software engineering)
|
|
- examples/biomedical-implant-context.md (hip implant material
|
|
selection, biomedical engineering)
|
|
Both demonstrate the context record structure (OE-0003) with
|
|
fully populated fields in a contemporary engineering discipline.
|
|
|
|
|
|
RESIDUAL ITEMS (Not Gaps — Future Phase Work)
|
|
=================================================
|
|
|
|
These are not specification defects. They are implementation-phase
|
|
work that cannot be completed during the Bedrock Phase.
|
|
|
|
1. Implementation Phase tooling
|
|
website/, implementations/, schemas/, tools/ remain empty
|
|
structural placeholders.
|
|
|
|
2. Empirical hypothesis testing
|
|
The three hypotheses in OE-0000 require real-world testing with
|
|
practitioners. This is the first task of the Implementation
|
|
Phase.
|
|
|
|
3. "Bedrock" term collision — full decision
|
|
The collision is documented and mitigated. The project may
|
|
ultimately choose to fully rename to "reality basis." This is
|
|
a project decision, not a specification defect.
|
|
|
|
4. Additional discipline-specific examples PARTIALLY ADDRESSED
|
|
The examples/ directory now contains 18 examples across 9
|
|
engineering disciplines (civil, software, biomedical, chemical,
|
|
aerospace, environmental, manufacturing, electrical, mechanical)
|
|
and 9 conceptual areas (thread integrity, structure carries
|
|
meaning, verification loop, stewardship, inheritance, spiral
|
|
re-evaluation, observation first, survey, pre-discipline principle).
|
|
Remaining opportunity: practitioners in specific domains may add
|
|
further discipline-specific examples during the Community Phase
|
|
that reflect their domain's unique constraint patterns.
|
|
|
|
5. Context record interchange format
|
|
The minimum required fields are defined. A machine-readable
|
|
schema (JSON, YAML, or other) for context record interchange
|
|
will be defined during the Implementation Phase.
|
|
|
|
6. Milestone Statement
|
|
Process metadata about revision milestones belongs in project
|
|
records, not in the standard. No specification content references
|
|
any project milestone name. |
