Minutes
Dale called for a motion to approve the minutes of
the Scottsdale F2F meeting. The motion was offered by
Peter O., seconded by Tim, and unanimously approved.
Announcements
Dale will put a membership list on the team web page.
Dale announced that the period for assembling corrections
for version 1.1 against version 1.0 will run through
the end of this month. He reminded us that our charter
calls for delivering version 1.1 by 1Q02. Marty suggested
wider advertisement of this process. Dale will forward
an announcement to the OASIS Messaging, Registry, and
BTP groups.
Dale stated that (the week of) Oct 3 - 5 seems to be
the only viable time frame for co-locating our next
F2F with the Messaging group. He's trying to get them
to switch from Miami to the San Jose area.
Committees
Messaging
Arvola reported on recent activities of the Messaging
group. For details, refer to his email summary:
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ebxml-cppa/200108/msg00051.html
Marty noted the recent intense email discussion among
the Messaging group on reliable messaging, particularly
over multiple hops; when resolved, the discussion will
undoubtedly yield things that will need to be reflected
in our spec.
Tim asked about the time frame for releasing version
1.1 of the Messaging spec. Arvola responded that it
would probably be in Q4. Dale prefers for us to publish
our spec later so that we can synch our revisions with
theirs.
The Messaging team has an Access database to maintain
issues. Tony has also created an Access database for
our issues - we can swap databases with them to aid
in searching for common topics. Dale asked if there
were any concerns about using Access and none were raised.
Tony expects to publish the issues in other format(s),
such as RTF.
Security
Tim is going over security matters described in Marty's
to do list. The security team met prior to this
call and talked about big picture issues, priorities
and corrections.
Negotiation
Marty plans an outline of material for a potential
white paper and a requirements document that he hopes
to get to next week.
BPSS
Karsten reported that the ebXML BP team has had several
meetings with two major topics. The first is general
organization. The second is a draft proposal for a project
that would deal with monitored commitments, e.g., when
monitoring a contract that calls for 200 widgets, there
is a relationship between the original order and (multiple)
individual fulfillments. They want to model such relationships
in UML then in XML. For details, see the proposal in
email from Bob Haugen:
http://lists.ebxml.org/archives/ebxml-bp/200108/msg00010.html
Karsten isn't sure if this is a concern for our team
at all; he'll report later as appropriate.
Open Discussion
Pallavi raised the possibility of a focused sub-team
to work on version 1.1. Dale and Marty agreed that it
seems like a good idea.
Kevin asked about posting the charter on the team's
web page. Tony will take care of it.
Next Meeting
There will be a non-voting meeting next week on Thursday,
August 16, 11:30 am - 12:00 Eastern time (USA).
