Subject: [PCCLIST] PCC Relationship Designator Guidelines 

Everyone, 

I think that I've rarely sent out such a timely message. There have been many questions lately about relationship designator best practices. PCC has been hard at work developing our initial set of guidelines and I am extremely pleased to be able to distribute them today. As you know, these guidelines were developed from the impressive report sent out to you earlier: PCC Relationship Designator Guidelines Task Group Report. The TG, chaired by Chew Chiat Naun (membership: Paige Andrew, Eileen Dewitya, Linda Gabel, Kate Harcourt, Beth Iseminger, Christee Pascale, Dave Reser and Katia Strieck), produced a thoughtful report filled with many recommendations, additional questions, and some initial guidelines. 

That report has been vetted with you. Based on your responses, the TG produced a revised and final report. Then, from that report, we have created this set of initial guidelines. Kate Harcourt has done an amazing job in pulling them together and I thank her heartily! These new guidelines were vetted at OpCo and PoCo has been busy making some final adjustments. 

I'd like to stress here that these are initial guidelines. We are still gaining experience with our new model and we should feel free to revise our documentation in an agile manner as best practices become more apparent. This is a great milestone for us and could not come at a better time. My sincere thanks to all that have made this possible! 

Philip
