Updated ENDF-6 Format Approval Process [Slides]
The presentation begins by discussing the original ENDF/B-VIII.0 format proposal lifecycle and states that the GNDS Expert Group has developed a gitlab-friendly review process that addresses concerns raised by the format proposal lifecycle. As a result, a revised ENDF/B-VIII.0 format proposal lifecycle has been created. The presentation then discusses the necessary steps in the lifecycle that are as follows: create an issue in the issue tracker, make your changes directly to the manual, submit it for review and final approval. The presentation concludes by discussing two other things, including the transition CI/CD from buildbot system to built-in gitlab CI/CD and that the revised format review process document will follow, pending approval.
