Document Register
Canonical index of all TrustSurface Framework artefacts.
1. Purpose
This register is the canonical index of all TrustSurface Framework artefacts for the v1.2 public draft.
It records each artefact’s identifier, title, control class, publication status, and location within the repository.
2. Classification model
- Control: Normative / Informative / Guidance / Operational
- Status: Draft / Public draft / Public release / Superseded / Retired / Archived
3. Normative boundary
The following artefacts form the normative core of the TrustSurface Framework v1.2 public draft:
- TSF-DEF-1 - Trust Surface Definition
- TSF-MOD-1 - Trust Surface Model & Domains
- TSF-LIF-1 - Trust Surface Lifecycle
- TSF-GOV-1 - Governance Integration Model
- TSF-GLO-1 - Glossary
- TSF-SPEC-1 - One-page Specification
Informative, Guidance, and Operational artefacts support this set but do not override it.
