We wrote a very clear and concise note about Common Event Expression (CEE) approach to log standards. Even marketing people can read it 
Quoted from here:
“I'd like to make you aware that the CEE editorial board has published a short overview white paper describing the overall CEE effort including the problems and approaches that CEE is taking.
If you want a quick summary of what CEE is and how the different parts of the effort work, we'd encourage you to take a look at this paper.
The document is available for download in PDF form on the CEE web site: http://cee.mitre.org/documents.html.And as always, we'd encourage your feedback- please feel free to post any comments to the CEE discussion mailing list at cee-discussion-list@lists.mitre.org. “
P.S. Posted by a scheduler. I am away from the computers – responses to comments will be delayed.
