Quorum was achieved. 2. The meeting agenda was approved. 3. Minutes of the meetings on 17th November and 1st December were approved. 4. Outstanding actions: 03-11-03-07 - Completed. See Working Draft-8. 03-11-04-1 - Ongoing. Hal identified two cases: 1) the requestor identity is vouched for by a trusted party using a certificate, ticket or license; and 2) the identity is claimed but not vouched for. The request protocol includes an element for a claimed identity. If a trusted party vouched for the identity, then the claimed identity element is redundant. The semantics of the claimed identity element are not explicitly stated. Trevor suggested that the profiles should deal with this question. It may be that this element is used by the requestor to indicate which of the identities asserted by the trusted party is to be included in the response. Action: Trevor is to add a note in the core document to indicate that profiles must explain the semantics of the claimed identity element. 03-11-17-3 - Ongoing. Juan-Carlos has circulated a proposal. Discussion should continue by email. 03-11-17-4 - Completed. 03-12-1-1 - Completed. 03-12-1-2 - Completed. 03-12-1-3 - Completed. 5. Core document - There are no outstanding issues. Trevor suggests that people need more time to review Working Draft 8. 6. Profile documents - Nick suggested that further updates to the core document should only result from work on profiles. It was agreed to shift the group's focus to the profiles. 7. The following candidate profiles were identified: CMS & S/MIME XAdES EPM WS-Security code-signing JARs notary service Time-stamp Corporate seals Court-filing integrity digest It was agreed that the profiles will be specified in separate documents, possibly published at the same time as the core specification. Nick suggested that the champion for a particular profile should provide a discussion of its characteristics for the next meeting. Trevor suggested that we could develop a profile template by tackling one particular profile; for instance, the time-stamp one. Juan-Carlos offered to work on the XAdES profile. Frederick expressed an interest in the WS-Security profile. Nick expressed an interest in the corporate seal profile. And Pieter expressed an interest in the code-signing profile. It is anticipated that Steve Gray and Ed Shallow will work on the EPM profile. Juan-Carlos mentioned that there will be an XAdES interop event in November and that it would be valuable to use a DSS implementation for that event. Trevor said that it would be valuable to know when setting priorities who will be implementing which profiles. It was mentioned that three organizational members must attest that they are successfully using the specification in order to progress it to OASIS Standard. Hal pointed out that the TC can define what is meant by "successfully using". Action: Juan-Carlos and Nick are to request expressions of interest in developing profiles for the next meeting. Action: All who are interested in developing a profile are to provide a discussion of the proposed characteristics of the profile by the next meeting. 8. Next meeting - 12th Jan 2004. Best wishes for the season to all our readers. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Tim Moses 613.270.3183
