+    <p>This specification provides the minimal requirements for processing an OSCAL Profile to create a new OSCAL Catalog Document. This process of applying a profile to a catalog to create a new catalog is called <term>Profile Resolution</term>. Not all OSCAL Profiles will be resolved, nor are expected to be; however, the resolution requirements in this document are crucial to understanding the intended functionality of any given OSCAL Profile. This specification is intended for software developers who intend to develop an OSCAL Profile Resolver, or for OSCAL Profile authors who want a more in-depth understanding of profile resolution.</p>

+      <head>Purpose</head>
+      <p>This document defines the normative requirements for an OSCAL Profile Resolver. Profile resolution is core to addressing a fundamental OSCAL requirement: the representation of baselines separately from the control catalogs on which they depend). The requirements for resolution must therefore be well-defined and deterministic, enabling tool developers and parties exchanging OSCAL Profiles can work from a common understanding.</p>
+      <p>No requirements are placed on implementation-level details, instead, requirements are laid out as what the output of resolution must look like given a certain input. By adhering to these requirements OSCAL producers, OSCAL consumers, and any other members of the OSCAL ecosystem can create and resolve profiles deterministically, with repeatable results, regardless of the tool used.</p>

+      <head>Use of YAML</head>
+      <p>OSCAL supports a variety of serialization formats, each of which having it&apos;s own benefits and drawbacks. In this document, YAML (YAML Ain&apos;t Markup Language) is used to represent the various objects of the <term>source</term> and <term>target</term>. All examples and in-line references will be represented using <a href="https://yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html">YAML 1.2</a>.</p>
+      <p>YAML maps cleanly to JSON, thus allowing easy use of existing JSON/XML transformers where needed. With that in mind, the <a href="https://pages.nist.gov/OSCAL/reference/latest/complete/json-reference/">OSCAL Complete JSON Reference</a> is a valuable resource for understanding the YAML-based information structures used in this document. All JSON properties and objects defined in the reference equate to a YAML mapping, list, or dictionary.</p>
+    </section>
+    <section id="reading-examples">
+      <head>Reading YAML Examples</head>
+      <p>YAML is a particularly human-readable format. For those unfamiliar with the format, the basics:</p>
+      <ul>
+        <li>
+          <p>Each line is a key-value pair, presented as <code>key:value</code>, or as <code>key:</code> with any number of list items on the following lines.</p>
+        </li>
+        <li>
+          <p>Indentation, spacing, and white space matters. Items below a key and indented one level in are members (or children) of that key.</p>
+        </li>
+        <li>
+          <p>List items are represented with a preceding dash <code>- listitemkey:value</code>.</p>
+        </li>
+      </ul>
+      <p>The YAML specification is freely available here:<a href="https://yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html">YAML 1.2</a>.</p>
+      <p>Additionally, in order to unambiguously express information, this specification uses additional conventions, as described below.</p>
+      <p>There are some objects whose values must be determined dynamically at processing time. The most common example of this is timestamping output as it is processed. In this case, and any other dynamic-value cases, the expression <code>${{ }}</code> is used.</p>
+      <p>For example:</p>
+      <tagging whose="target_catalog"><![CDATA[
+last-modified: ${{ timestamp }}]]></tagging>
+      <p>Indicates the <tgt>last-modified</tgt> object should be produced with contents generated appropriately, in this case, the timestamp at the time of processing.</p>
+      <p>Some examples may elide content to enhance readability or save space. In these cases, a YAML comment (any line that starts with <code>#</code>) will be used to explain the elision.</p>
+      <p>Finally, although examples are syntactically faithful to OSCAL, they are not necessarily always formally valid in every respect. For example, OSCAL defines allowed property names (<src>props</src>) and values, and those rules may not be observed here. Examples are given for purposes of illustrating profile resolution semantics only, and should not be taken as normative for any actual use.</p>
+    </section>
+    <section id="document-layout">
+      <head>Document Layout</head>
+      <p>The specification is broken into the following major sections:</p>
+      <ul>
+        <li>
+          <p><term>Phases of Profile Resolution</term>- Lays out the necessary steps and phases of profile resolution. As each phase executes, the processor is understood to be creating and editing an intermediate representation of the output. There is one section for each of the three main phases.</p>
+        </li>
+        <li>
+          <p><term>Target Catalog Structure</term>- Provides the requirements for structuring the final output from the intermediate representation generated throughout the previous section.</p>
+        </li>
+      </ul>
+      <p><term>Please note</term>: As referenced in the Purpose section <xref rid="purpose" />, this specification makes no hard requirements on the specifics of implementation. It is feasible for an implementation to use no intermediate representation, and to directly and iteratively build the output. As long as all processing and output requirements are satisfied, any approach is allowed. With that said, the specification has been laid out to aid in implementation by providing a clear organization as a sequence of distinct operations.</p>
+    </section>
+    <section id="intermediate">
+      <head>The Intermediate and Implementation Guidance</head>
+      <p>The overall intent of this document, in addition to defining strict requirements, is to provide rough guidelines on implementing an OSCAL Profile Resolution Tool. To this end, each phase of resolution will be framed as a series of transformations applied to an internal data structure that is persistent throughout the process. We call this &quot;the intermediate&quot;.</p>
+      <p>Any examples that are labelled as &quot;Intermediate&quot; are pseudo-code, designed to represent how this data structure might look as we apply different operations to it. The example intermediates are often not valid OSCAL, and are not to be taken as guidance, but rather a useful visualization tool for implementers.</p>
+      <p>The authors believe that applying the steps of resolution in order against this intermediate representation is the simplest way to achieve full compliance with the specification. However, there is no requirement to implement profile resolution in this way. Requirements are given as rules on the output of resolution, and as such, tools can operate any way they would like internally.</p>
+    </section>
+  </section>
+  <section id="phases">
+    <head>Phases of Profile Processing</head>
+    <p>An OSCAL Profile has three major sections, each which correspond to a phase of profile resolution. In order to complete the profile resolution process, each section must be fully parsed and a catalog output created.</p>
+    <p><req level="recommended" id="req-phase-order">It is strongly RECOMMENDED that implementations execute the following steps in the order that they are provided here (import, merge, modify).</req> While it is possible to achieve compliance with a non-standard approach, the iterative nature of profile resolution lends itself to linear processing.</p>
+    <p>The three steps are <term>import</term>;<term>merge</term>; and <term>modify</term>. In brief:</p>
+    <ul>
+      <li>
+        <p><term>import</term>- identifies one or more control sources (catalogs or profiles) and defines the controls within them to be included in the result catalog. If nothing is imported, no resulting catalog is produced. Invoked by <src>import</src> directives in source profiles;</p>
+      </li>
+      <li>
+        <p><term>merge</term>- designates the rules for how controls will be organized (ordered and/or grouped) and merged (addressing conflicts or ambiguities) in the result catalog. Controlled by the <src>merge</src> directive in source profiles; if none are included, default merge rules are used;</p>
+      </li>
+      <li>
+        <p><term>modify</term>- indicates how controls and their parameters in the underlying catalog are to be altered, edited, amended or added in the final result catalog. Logical evaluation and parameter constraints provide advanced processing. Controlled by the <src>modify</src> directive in source profiles. If a <src>modify</src> directive is not provided, no changes will be made to the controls that have been imported/merged.</p>
+      </li>
+    </ul>
+    <p>As described in the previous section, when resolved, an OSCAL Profile takes the form of an OSCAL Catalog. The phases described below will produce outputs conforming to the catalog model.</p>
+  </section>
+  <section id="import">
+    <head>Import Phase</head>
+    <p>A profile begins by listing a set of catalogs and/or profiles to be imported. Each is represented by a resolvable resource URI and a directive specifying which controls to import from that resource. These resources may be available as static resources, or they may be produced dynamically on request; such as is the case when a profile is imported. Imports are given in sequence after the metadata:</p>
+    <tagging whose="source_profile"><![CDATA[
+profile:
+  uuid: ~
+  metadata: ~
+  imports:
+    - href: ${{ catalog URI }}
+      include-controls: ${{ list of selected controls }}
+    - href: ${{ profile URI }}
+      include-controls: ${{ list of selected controls }} 
+   ]]></tagging>
+    <p>In an import directive, the reference to the resource to be imported appears on an <src>href</src> child object. It takes either of two forms, external or internal:</p>
+    <p>An external reference appears as an absolute or relative URL:</p>
+    <tagging whose="source_profile"><![CDATA[
+profile:
+  uuid: ~
+  metadata: ~
+  imports:
+    - href: >-
+        https://github.com/usnistgov/oscal-content/tree

For instance, in SP 800-53 many controls are supplemented with control enhancements; in OSCAL these are represented as child controls within parent controls. So parent AC-2 (in a given catalog) has children AC-2(1) through AC-2(13), for example.</p>

As a shortcut to manually including all of the desired descendant controls of a given control, OSCAL provides the &quot;with-child-controls&quot; option. &quot;with-child-controls&quot; appears as a child object under a given inclusion directive, and defines additional behavior that is to be executed alongside the parent inclusion.</p>

+<!-- REMOVING INTRO
+<section id="infocontext">
+  <head>Informational Context and Scope</head>
+  <p>A <term>profile</term>in OSCAL represents a selection and configuration of a set of <term>controls</term>. 
+    In the normal case, the set of controls available to a profile is provided by a catalog.For example, the three NIST SP 800-53 profiles representing the impact baselines HIGH, MODERATE and LOW: call on a Catalog representing the families, 
+    controls and control enhancements described in SP 800-53/53A. In a data processing system, this dependency can be modeled in the form of separate documents or data instances - the (nominal) <q>catalog</q>and its
+    <q>profile</q>, the latter being a selection, adaptation and organization of controls, as distinct from the catalog from which those controls are derived.
+  </p>
+  <p>However, profiles may also select controls from profiles, thus deriving them from underlying catalogs as modified by those profiles. This feature enables an organization that wishes to promulgate guidelines or requirements to do so by publishing a set of customizations to an existing catalog, rather than create a catalog from scratch. Profiles can also arrange combinations of controls from more than one catalog or profile origin, making it possible to use them to support the creation of hybrid catalogs.</p>
+  <p>In the general case OSCAL must support sourcing more than one catalog at once, in order to aggregate and organize controls from disparate sources. For example, it should be routine for a profile to acquire its controls from an authoritative standard catalog, plus a local supplement. But multiple catalog inputs, especially when they are produced and sourced independently of one another, may not combine without issues. In order to provide sensible and transparent results even for incoherent inputs, this specification defines these processes such that legible and testable results are produced even when they are formally invalid to constraints governing the outputs. Such downstream processing errors including validation errors are expected to be detectable and remediable. This especially applies to situations where multiple catalogs are sourced, or where the same catalog is sourced more than once, directly or indirectly.</p>
+  <p>In order to support these semantics – because whatever data set is sourced by a profile, it must
+    <q>look like a catalog</q>– the results of resolving a single profile must be in the form of a single catalog. Two different OSCAL processors that promise profile resolution, must deliver, for the same input, the same catalog with regard to its contents: which controls are included; their ordering (insofar as the target format represents ordering); and the structure (groups) in which they are embedded. This specification is designed to make this possible, by defining outputs with sufficient rigor that
+    <q>the same</q>is meaningful and testable in this context.
+  </p>
+</section>
+<section id="why-a-catalog">
+ TODO: Needs more in-depth editing pass
+  <head>Why resolve a profile as a catalog</head>
+  <p>A profile is a representation of a delta, a
+    <q>here to there</q>. As such, a profile might be conceived of as a recipe or instruction set – a sequence of steps or procedures – whereby to create an OSCAL catalog (set of controls describing security requirements) from an OSCAL catalog (set of controls describing security requirements). The primary use case for this is when we need to make a new catalog to apply to a system or set of systems, starting from a canonical, received, mandated or standard catalog with a more general scope.
+  </p>
+  <p>This is because although catalogs - for example, the controls described in NIST SP 800-53 - are published, available for use, and even standardized, they can never be used exactly in the form in which they are acquired. They must be taken from the packaging and placed into operational context before they mean anything. This typically requires that a few operations over
+    <q>raw catalogs</q>be supported by a profiling mechanism. We must be able to select controls; we must be able to arrange them in order (or not); and we must be able to qualify or condition them by setting parameters defined for them and making adjustments to them.
+  </p>
+  <p>By representing the steps by which a base catalog can be sliced, sifted, amended and edited, into a (nominally) finished or ready set of control requirements, a profile makes it easier to codify and preserve even very incidental or temporary local revisions of a control catalog. Once expressed as a profile in OSCAL format, a set of amendments to a catalog (also known as &quot;tailoring&quot;) can be managed entirely separately and independently from the catalog. Because a conformant processor can always create the customized catalog by resolving the profile against its sources (executing the transformation described in this document), the profile can also be examined and used as a proxy for that catalog for other purposes. The customized catalog can be made available wherever and for whatever purposes it is needed, while its revision and maintenance can be focused on the profile.</p>
+  <p>This separation of concerns - between the originating catalog authors, who describe policy in only general terms, and the authors of the
+    <q>user manual</q>catalog, who must describe policy in very particular and local terms - is a necessary factor in supporting sustainable processes with the potential for automation and process improvement. An OSCAL profile bridges the gap between a set of general guidelines, and actionable rules. Only by examining the system in the context of the actual intentions appropriate to that system, can we properly assess its security. Profiles make this possible.
+  </p>
+  <p>In order for this to work, however, we need a process that can perform the necessary operations, to apply the delta to an unmodified catalog, to produce the local view of the catalog as modified. This is profile resolution.</p>

An OSCAL Profile defines the selection and potential alterations to a control catalog that are needed to establish a baseline. However, the OSCAL implementation layer depends on having an OSCAL Catalog that represents the baseline of controls to be implemented. Profile Resolution allows for computing an effective catalog based on an OSCAL Profile. For a given OSCAL Profile, the Profile Resolution process needs to result in the same OSCAL Catalog when executed by different tools on different endpoints.

     <p>A profile begins by listing a set of catalogs and/or profiles to be imported. Each is represented by a resolvable resource URI and a directive specifying which controls to import from that resource.

+# Profile Resolution Specification and Testing
+
+## process notes
+
+- new 'resolution-testing.xml' keeps track of unit tests
+- spec is validated against this test manifest
+- it can also be converted into XSpec or other test drivers
+
+### Test coverage
+
+Finishing the tests by assigning them to Github Issues?
+
+### Validating the tests (source/target)
+
+need a process for this - also Github Issues?
+
+### Revising the spec
+
+- validate test manifest against its spec - any broken links?

 ## Providing feedback on this specification
 
 The OSCAL team welcomes feedback on the work in progress in this subdirectory, whether it be questions, points for clarification, critiques or suggestions. A rendered version of the Profile Resolution specification maintained here [appears](https://pages.nist.gov/OSCAL/concepts/processing/profile-resolution/) on the OSCAL web site.

 The specifications are being edited in an ad-hoc XML back end format, a lightweight extension to HTML tagging. If you wish to edit the files directly, we have stylesheets for presentation and HTML conversion along with Schematron for validation (runtime or at check points); please contact us.
 
+## Profile Resolution Unit Tests
+
+Profile resolution unit tests are maintained here and bound to the specification via markup embedded with the specifications, for convenience in alignment. Formal test scenario files can be generated dynamically from markup when needed.
+
+In this subdirectory, the folder `profile-resolution-examples` includes old tests kept here for potential future use/reuse while we complete a common test set.
+
+The comment test set we are developing can be found in folder `requirement-tests`.
+
+## SpecML Capabilities
+
+- XML authoring of specifications
+- HTML previews with ToC / requirements index
+- HTML rendering for Hugo / site load
+- Back end validation support for specialized semantics
+- Tagging of requirements integrates with unit tests
+- Cosmetic reformatter rewrites your document with clean tagging and whitespace
+
+- Unit test set (XSpec) is annotated with keys (links) back to spec document
+- Two-way indexing enables assessment of coverage by unit tests (per marked up requirements)
+
+- The tests themselves can be illustrated (in/out) using another rendering XSLT
+
+### oXygen project for editing specs
+
+Included in this folder is an oXygen XML Editor project file with settings for many of these operations.
+
+### SpecML requirement tagging
+
+`//req` shows requirements called out as statements in line.
+
+`//eg` shows bindings to example documents for purposes of testing.
+
+```
+<eg href="requirement-tests/req-chained-deepA.xml">PENDING chained profiles</eg>
+```
+
+The `@href` is the file instance for the example. The text is a qualifying description. Prefixing the text with `PENDING` signals that a test should be deactivated. In this case, as soon as chained profiles are supported, the description can be changed and the test will be run.
+
+Presently all `eg` are inside `req` so there is an implicit relation there (no examples are named apart from stated requirements).
+
+### Unit test scenario generation
+
+Based on markup in the SpecML document, XSpec unit test sheets can be generated framing the unit test held in this subdirectory, to be executed in any (current) XSpec implementation.
+
+#### Requirements listing
 
-TODO:
+Broken out by requirement - corresponding line by line to //req in the Spec document source.
+This XSpec is generated by applying the XSLT `lib/build-reqs-xspec.xsl` to the SpecML source document (marked with `req` and `eg` tags).
 
-### Requirements index
+#### File listing
 
-Annotate a copy/mirror of profile metaschema (composed)
-  link to requirements
-  link to test(s)
+Grouped by file instead of by requirement (since there is a many-to-many relation), this XSpec may be faster and more efficient to execute.
 
-current XSpecs
-  for each test
-    if green
-      confirm correctness of test
-    if pink
-    
-XSLT to poll unit tests
-  drawing profile model element tree with links to tests showing usages
+This XSpec is generated by applying the XSLT `lib/build-examples-xspec.xsl` to the same SpecML source document.
 
+#### Handmade XSpec
 
-            
-new XSpecs
-  
-    
-for every test document, list
-- objects of interest (assembles fields flags or flag/values) - xpath
-- for each of these
-  - requirement(s) being tested
-  - index into spec (section title/phrase)
+Additionally handmade XSpec works, such as `profile-resolution-queryset.xspec`
