The DDF team has used GitHub to store the deliverables for this project, However for ease of use please download the following zip file to access the UML, API and CT deliverables.
Throughout the development process we have been using a visual representation to aid understanding of the UML model. The two files below represent the model at the end phase 1 (USDM v1.0) and at the end of phase 2 development. These two diagrams are intended to help the review audience see the differences between USDM v1.0 and USDM v2.0. Note that these files are for information only. The official normative content is represented in the UML file above.
Please sign up to the DDF2 Public Review Webinar to find out more information about the Public Review Version of the USDM. A recording of the webinar will be available here.

Step 4 - Making Comments on Issues
In some instances the CDISC DDF team may request additional information - this can be done using the commenting feature within a JIRA issue.
Usually the CDISC team member will create a comment and tag people who they want to address their comment - This can be done by typing the "@" sign and then the JIRA username.
JIRA will notify you that there is a comment addressed to you from CDISC and a link to JIRA to open the JIRA ticket.
Comments are seen at the bottom of the JIRA ticket once it is open
You can reply to comments, add attachments, links etc.
This is often used to keep a record of the discussions used to resolve a JIRA ticket
