Minutes

Preliminary Discussion

Tim inquired whether there are any existing standards for security profiles and suggested that it would be good to start collecting examples. Marty asked if the ebXML risk assessment team had done anything in this area. Dale replied that they'd done some, but wasn't sure how much made it into the final document.

Next Face to face Meeting

Dale announced our next meeting is tentatively planned for Oct. 1 - 3 in the San Francisco Bay area. SAP can host the meeting. Details will be forthcoming, after which Dale will ask for preliminary responses from team members regarding prospective attendance. Ian Jones of the Messaging TC agreed to co-locate their next meeting with ours from Oct. 3 - 5 and to meet jointly with us on Oct. 3.

Minutes of Previous Face to Face Meeting

We discussed a request from Aynur Unal of e2Open to be listed among the attendees of the Scottsdale F2F. By consensus, we'll take up the matter during the next voting meeting. It was pointed out that dates of the July 24 - 25 meeting are shown in the minutes as July 25 to 26. (We can address that matter at the same time.)

Committees

Messaging

Arvola reported that the Messaging committee's issues database is not out yet. Also, their committee had a brief discussion about creating a primer on how to construct a message. Michael Wang reported that IIC is interested in picking up the task. The messaging committee list has discussed reliable end-to-end messaging, but it's unclear to what extend that will be addressed for their version 1.1 specification. Marty asked for confirmation that they will make necessary repairs for single hop cases; Arvola was quite sure that they would.

Security

Tim is trying to collect use cases for version 2.0. [Also see the discussion of security profiles, above.]

BPSS

No report.

Negotiation

Marty distributed a white paper to the team that combines material from his and Dale's F2F presentations, as well as from Marty's personal notes. Next, the team has to build a requirements document. Marty has asked the team to discuss the paper by email for a week or so, leading to an improved draft. The paper references the ebXML technical report on e-Commerce patterns (version 1) that includes a negotiation pattern. Marty also mentioned a related document created by Duane Nickull that he (Marty) distributed to the negotiation team for their consideration. Marty agreed to circulate the paper to the entire committee now; reviewers may return a marked up version of the Word document if their comments are sufficiently detailed.

Issues Database

Tony reported that he has populated his Access database with material from Marty's document along with recent discussion on the list. Subsequently, David Burdett furnished Tony with the Messaging team's Access database. Tony will consider how to proceed with the two databases. It was informally agreed to circulate the issues on the list after the end of this month when the public comment period concerning version 1.1 expires.

Joint Meeting with Messaging Committee

Tim asked whether the upcoming joint F2F will focus mostly on synchronizing our respective version 1.1 specs. Dale assumes that version 1.1 issues will dominate, given the time available, although some version 2.0 requirements will undoubtedly emerge. We should look to reach agreement on plans for the version 1.1 specs during the joint meeting.

September Conference Calls

Please send email to Dale if you're willing to handle conference call hosting next month.

Next Meeting

We will have a non-voting meeting next week on Thursday, 11:30 am - 12:00 Eastern time (USA).
