- other messaging approaches?
Enhancements: SAML, standardized ways to point to agreed upon
credential sets, formats and encryption of credential sets,
policies concerning maintenance of credential sets.
- Any other issues.

The rest of this 30 minute meeting was devoted to discussing subteams and
exchanging thoughts about priorities for future activities.
Arvola Chan and Pallavi Malu will lead the subteam on wsdl interaction research.
Dale will try to set up a mailing list for this work.
Tony Fletcher and Hima Mukkamala will lead the subteam on transaction capability
and agreement enhancements.
Dale will talk with Selim Aissi and Peter Ogden about investigating security agreement
enhancements.
Marty reported on the negotiation subteam, which had a good crowd this week.
Some progress was made in listing what was negotiable about each
element and attribute in the CPPA. Dale contributed an incomplete spreadsheet for documenting our initial views on the negotiable items, what was negotiable, and what ranges, if any, of values might be in the NDD. The PKI alignments made for draft CPAs was discussed, and an attempt was made to capture what negotiation options might exist for this. The dependency on rejecting PKI alignment upon boolean attributes in the BusinessProcessCharacteristics element was noted. How to capture this in a NDD was not resolved yet.
Dale reported on some of the issues being discussed in the WS Description WG in W3C.
Jamie pointed out that ebTWG groups had also been discussing related issues, and interested parties should read these archives.
Jamie also suggested that we might research how the ws-sec document might relate to
both CPP descriptions and CPA agreements for a light weight SOAP messaging option.
The meeting was adjourned on time!
