11189

<Bob> proposals in http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=11189

Ashok: would it be possible to separate out the inlining from the dialect attribute
... make it oorthogonal to dialect

Doug: Depends whether they are always orthogonal. Prop 1 restricts to one content for all metadata

Tom: Concerned that prop 1 would remove function at this point. Preference for 3

<dug> I'm leaning towards 3 too

<Zakim> asir, you wanted to ask a question

Asir: There is a similar content attribute on the delete message

Doug: I don't think that this is an issue as we don't have a notion of deleting all the metadata, hence tying content attribute to dialect is ok for delete

RESOLUTION: Proposal 3

<scribe> ACTION: Katy to write up text for proposal 3 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/11/16-ws-ra-irc]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-171 - Write up text for proposal 3 [on Katy Warr - due 2010-11-23].

Issue 11202

Issue accepted, no objection

<asir> I vaguely recollect that this was requested by WSO2/Paul Freemantle

RESOLUTION: 11202 is resolved as proposed in issue

Issue 11210

Resolution: 11210 is resolved as proposed in issue

Gil: Have sent email containing new issue in eventing

Bob: I will use your proposal as potential resolution to 10960

Feature lists

Bob: Is there any more known work required for these feature lists?
... as no more known work will use these as base
... I will pull all the feature lists from emails and organise on page so people have a uniform place to find

<scribe> ACTION: rfreund to pull feature list info together [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/11/16-ws-ra-irc]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-172 - Pull feature list info together [on Bob Freund - due 2010-11-23].

Primers

Bob: Make primers documents so we can start raising issues etc

Doug: Some text in transfer/frag is same for others
... so could consolidate

<scribe> ACTION: rfreund to organise documents in central location on our web page [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2010/11/16-ws-ra-irc]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-173 - Organise documents in central location on our web page [on Bob Freund - due 2010-11-23].

Next F2F

Bob: would like to pick a date so that we get some testing started

Asir: Ram said that February (mid) would be provisionally ok but would like a checkpoint in early Jan prior to committing

Bob: A checkpoint a month before the scheduled date would seem resonable before commit
... suggest Jan 11th checkpoint for Feb 14th meeting

<dug> Anyone care about valentine's day?

Gil: need to check availability of conference centre

Bob: Tues 15th, Wed 16th, Thurs 17th Feb? Objections?

No objections

Bob: Gil please check that you can host

Resolution: F2F provisionally set for 15-17th Feb, focus interop testing, will perform checkpoint to confirm date one month before.

Issue 8284

<dug> http://ws-i.org/profiles/BasicProfile-1.2-2010-11-09.html#wsdlcorrections

Bob: WS-I BP are final so we can add the final URIs

<asir> is there a specific text that we should be looking at

<dug> http://ws-i.org/profiles/BasicProfile-2.0-2010-11-09.html#wsdlcorrections

<Bob> original proposal http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access/2010Jan/0142.html

Bob: How is it best to wrap this into our wsdl references

Asir: there is a proposal from Gil dated Nov 13th 2009

<Bob> The version of WSDL 1.1 at http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/NOTE-wsdl-20010315 has

<Bob> known problems and inconsistencies. These were addressed in BasicProfile

<Bob> Version 1.1. The WS-RA specs should reference the BP-corrected-version of WSDL

<Bob> 1.1 via ISO IEC 29361:2008:

<Bob> http://www.iso.org/iso/catalogue_detail.htm?csnumber=45422

<Yves> but it's not a freely available copy

<asir> of course we need to replace ISO link to BP 12 and 20

asir: Whereever link to wsdl 1.1 with a note saying that there are issues to wsdl 1.1 that are addressed in latest BP 1.2 and 2.0 plus linke. In normative reference section.

Bob: Annotate references

Resolution: existing wsdl references (in bibliographies) should be annotated with appropriate links to BP 1.2 and 2.0

Issue 10960 http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10960

<dug> http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/ra/10/10/wseventing-expires.doc

<Bob> Doug and I have put together the following proposal to address the WS-Eventing issues we have raised: http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/ra/10/10/wseventing-expires.doc

<Bob> To highlight the major changes:

<Bob> * The wse:Subscribe/wse:Expires element is no longer receiver-optional, but it remains sender-optional; an implementation of an Event Source MUST support the wse:Expires element, but a Subscriber is not required to include it. If the Subscriber does not include it, the Event Source/Subscription Manager is required to pick some expiration value ("PT0S" meaning infinite is a valid choice)...

<Bob> ...and communicate this using wse:SubscribeResponse/wse:GrantedExpires.

<Bob> * The ExpiresNotSupported fault has been removed.

<Bob> * The wse:SubscribeResponse/wse:GrantedExpires and wse:RenewResponse/wse:GrantedExpires elements are no longer optional.

<Bob> * The ExpiresSupported policy parameter has been removed.

<Bob> * The MaxExpires policy parameter has been renamed "Expires" and now supports both min and max supported expiration times.

<Bob> ~ gp

Bob: this has been available for comment for a while
... any objection to accepting the combined proposal in the word document as a resolution to this issue?

Resolution: Issue 10960 resolved based on proposal

<Bob> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-resource-access-comments/2010Nov/0000.html

Gil: REfered to message on public comment list from Anish - link above

Doug: Basically looking for EventDescription spec to have a file extension for event description files (like .wsdl)
... is this just a de-facto 'standard'

Asir: Other specs specify a MIME type. This is probably what Anish is refering to.

<asir> http://www.w3.org/TR/2007/REC-ws-policy-20070904/#media-type

<asir> Additional Information / File Extension

Asir: there is a process for getting the mime type

Bob: Do folk think this might be an appropriate solution - think about for next time

<Yves> I would note http://www.w3.org/2002/06/registering-mediatype.html

Bob: Also reviewing of primers for next time
... I would like to get to CR status
... Any objections to end of 2nd week of December for CR
... Will open a bug for Anish's comment
... CR is formal step saying we think we are done and call for implementations
... any formal objections that exist need to be presented

Tom: will all the at-risk stuff be done during CR?

Bob: yes in order to promote to cr at risk needs to be identified, we think we have 2 implementations for each spec (except enum)
... I will be asking between now and CR to check whether implementors will be covering optional apsects of the spec in order to establish the at risk features.

Yves: We can progress to CR and then indicate that we require additional implementations

Doug: Gil recently sent a scenario doc for WS-Eventing, I think it would be good to extend this scenario to all specifications

Katy: this will also illustrate how specs compose together

Bob: This suggestion may have an impact of the maintenence independence of the specs but as scenarios are not normatively referenced, this should not cause a problem

<asir> Asir: apologies - we have not yet considered this one

Bob: consider this and make a decision asap in order to move along
... Next week intend to have a very brief call
... This does not suit all so next meeting on 30th November (no meeting next week)
