The MPAI-MMM documents already published and planned to be published are:

# Title What it is What it is for
1 Functionality Functionalities that a metaverse implementation may support To lay down a few basic assumptions and collect functionalities.
2 Functionality Profiles Profiles that reference functionalities, not technologies. WD published with a request for Community Comments.
3 Architecture Generic Metaverse Architecture. Building blocks, functions, and data types exchanged.
4 Table of Content of Metaverse Technology Specification Identification of technologies to be standardised. The steppingstone towards CMS.
5 System Governance Rules to manage the life cycle of technologies, profiles etc. Applied during and after Techno. & Profile development.
6 Metaverse Specifications Final Specification Provided by SDOs and used to develop the Technology Profiles
7 Technology Profiles Groupings of CMS Technologies from industry-sourced profile requirements Potentially mapping some of the Functionality Profiles
