Making Submissions to the e-Framework
The submission process for including components as part of the e-Framework consists of iterative steps. Double-headed arrows in the diagram indicate the possible iterations between the editor and the submitter and between the editor and the e-Framework Integrity Group, the panel that ultimately decides what components will be included as part of the e-Framework.
