This part of ISO/IEC 19778 specifies the Data Model for a collaborative group.
The collaborative group Data Model composes roles which can be played by the participants of a collaborative group, declares the intended role holders (positions for playing a particular role) for each role, and (at least during the life-span of the collaborative workplace) assigns participants to these role holders. The role names may be used as references to roles specified in detail by further specifications or standards. Where no such specifications or standards are available or identified, the provision of descriptions for human interpretation may support harmonized use of these names. Provided participant identifiers may be used as references to detailed participant information which may be specified in a provided user management system.
NOTE There is a risk of improper access and misuse of personal and private data facilitated by use of the collaborative group Data Model. It is the responsibility of the implementer to ensure proper use of any involved personal information.
