 **- Month 1:**  
    - Use the present one-year Working Group plan to elaborate particular objectives for various team members and relationships with stakeholders. 
    - Create an effective participatory R&D collaborative trajectory involving participants from multiple organizations. 
    - Identify and express in XalgoRuleSchema (XRS) a small number of scenarios in order to test understanding and utility. 
    - Design structured test protocols to compare data input/output relative to results from at least three widely deployed production-class systems currently in use. 
    - Adapt or create a simple online test service for validating automated rule fulfillment: 
       - Multilingual, accessible (WCAG 2.0) end-user interface. 
       - Rapid iterative diagnosis and documentation of discrepancies. 
       - Link to comprehensive issues management workflow.

    - Test and debug complicated rules, exceptions, anomalies and dependency chains (forward-chained, backward-chained rules). 
    - Commence scheduled version 1.x updates each quarter (3 months). 
    - Refine and publish documentation (technical, financial, legal). 
    - Jointly develop and present a third interim report to stakeholders.
