Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: Summary:
Table 9.13 in section 9.6.3 contains a parameter called PID_TOPIC_NAME as one of the in-line QoS settings. This parameter is not mentioned in the PIM.
Resolution:
First extend section 8.7.1 explaining the rationale behind in-line QoS data. This is addressed in OMG issue #11050 already. Then add the TOPICNAME parameter in section 8.7.2.1.
Revised Text:
·	Section 8.7.2.1, add the following sentence :
In-line parameters are added to data sub-messages to make them self-describing. In order to achieve self-describing sub-messages, not only the parameters defined in table 8.7.2.1 have to be sent with the sub-message, but also a parameter TOPICNAME. This parameter contains the name of the topic that the sub-message belongs to.

Resolution: see below

Hello Juergen,


You probably do not know that I have been involved with some work on the
DDS interoperability spec when I was still working with Thales. About a
year ago, I have moved to PrismTech together with six colleagues. Our
DDS product OpenSplice is one of the DDS reference implementations.


I have been re-reading the latest version of the interoperability spec
and I have also inspected the issues as proposed by Ken Brophy. I would
like to add another issue that is important for us. I suppose I have to
send it to you, and you will distribute it over the interested parties?


I have attached the issue.


Thank you,
Reinier
