There is a new subject, dataModel.RoboticIndustrialActivities, in the Smart Robotics domain for compiling data models related to industrial activities with robots. it currently compiles these data models.
Thanks to the contributors of the DIH2 project.
Many of the contributors of the data models are providing changes into the spec.md and its translations.
Fortunately, this is not necessary. You just need to provide the changes in the descriptions included in the schema.json file of each data model.
Now in order to save time for the contributors, a warning message has been included in the specs.
The link takes you to the contribution manual section where the specification is described.
Every week till there will be a 30 min live session to :

Now there is a specification translated into German available for all data models in the initiative. so it becomes official like French one and Spanish.
The translation is made automatically but it seems to be good enough.
Enjoy
In the README of every data model now there is a new line in the Dynamic examples section, under the text
“Link to the Generator of NGSI-LD keyvalues payloads compliant with this data model. Refresh for new values”
The link provides an example of a NGSI keyvalues payload with values compliant with the data types of this smart data model but generated randomly (so it does not look like static examples which actually are coming from real examples)
There is a new service for users, which is the ability to generate an example payload compliant with a specific data model in key values format. Previously it was available the normalized format.
Options are located in the main menu (Generate NGSI examples)
We have drafted the publication process for new data models and for updates.
It’s the first page of the contribution manual and every box (not in this image) has links to the tools/resources to be used.
Hopefully, it will be more straightforward to be understood.
In the right column of the front page, there is a new feature for look for data models

The list of data models has been completely changed.
Step 1: write part of the name of data model or repository
Step 2: The table filter the options
Step 3: Click on the name and it takes you directly to the github location you need.
In order to reduce the work for the contributors of the new data models, there is a new section on the contribution manual title ‘don’t do these’ with recommendations for the most common poor practices in the contribution process.
Although all contributions are welcomed it will save everybody’s time by reading this section once.
Additionally, the section can be improved so you can submit your recommendations/lessons learned here.
