Motion Passed. Primer is approved

Adoption TC:

Draft charter circulated.

Yes a TC can do adoption and erratta if members wanted to, depending on how the charter is written.

Martin says its silly to combine adoption with maintainance and should be separate TCs.

This is because different types of members who would contribute to each type of activity.

Diane notes that previous adoption TC's have been very marketing oriented and suggests that for BPEL the adoption activities of most value now would include technical education and guidance to early implementers, and so might involve more technical people than other previous adoption TC's have engaged.

Consensus that maybe Adoption is the wrong word.

Jamie will follow up with those who've expressed interest in forming such a TC.

AOB:

Jamie thanked the prsenters at the OASIS Symposium.

Jamie thanked the TC for all its effort.

Motion to thank the Chairs from Peter. 2nd Frank. Unanimously approved!

Thanks to Peter for mianting the issues list throughout the life of this TC

Motion to Adjourn. Passed.
