Reston F2F will proceed as planned.
Dale has asked OASIS to set up ebxml-cppa-ws list.
This team will serve to bridge CPP/A into web services.
Marty asked to join subteam. Tony suggested that we
make sure we provide a description of the scope of activity
of this group before its existence is broadcast
to all of OASIS by Karl.
Dale has not had an update from Karl regarding IPR
issues. It's in the hands of the lawyers now. Dale also
mentioned that OASIS tries to make sure that it's licensing
language is acceptable to the open source community.
Regarding implementers: Tibco is doing some work, but
Arvola said that it would be useful to have IPR issues
cleared up.
Subteam reports:
Negotiation: Based on element/attributes in
CPP/A examples, team is attempting to determine what
about each is negotiable. Dale solicited comments about
how to document negotiability of namespaces, etc., associated
with "other" extensibility elements. Current
model is that anything not mentioned in NDD is non-negotiable.
The facets of negotiation are values, presence/absence,
cardinality, extensibility, value-referenced.
BTP: Working on draft of requirements document.
WS: RN is interested in alternatives to BPSS.
Rumors that IBM and Microsoft are working on convergence
of Xlang and WSFL. Also interested in alternative messaging
bindings, such as generic SOAP. Supplementing basic
SOAP with WS-Security namespace elements might be another
way to implement BP-level, agreed-upon, security requirements.
WSDL formed a team to create an abstract model for
WSDL (perhaps using UML). Dale is not sure why they're
doing this, and concerned that it will slow down the
release of a cleaned-up, useful 1.2 version of the spec.
Currently, WSDL spec is a "note" submitted
by Microsoft and IBM to W3C, and it serves only as a
basis for W3C-based work.
There was some discussion about the lifecycle of the
OASIS teams and their standards, in particular ours.
Marty suggested that Dale bring this up in the next
OASIS oversight committee meeting (next week).
Dale solicited comments on prioritization of the various
things we might be working on between now and December;
sees this as a primary topic for the F2F.
Arvola and Selim indicated that they would be attending
the face to face by phone..
Tony moved to adjourn, Peter seconded, and the meeting.
adjourned.
Based on notes from Peter Ogden and Dale Moberg.
Please send corrections to the list.
