Hot topics

WSDL MEP Discussion

Tony: WSDL 1.1 MEPs are enough. More complex patterns can be derived by combination of the WSDL ones.

Ugo: WSDL 2.0 proposes some new MEPs. We should look at them and see if we can leverage them.

Steve: If WSDL 2.0 supported publish/subscribe it would be helpful to us. (see new action item)

Martin: WSD WG has not taken any specific action in that area yet.

 

WSDL F&P Letter http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/member-ws-chor/2004Jan/0011.html

Martin summarizes his note draft to WSD WG.

Steve: What is the difference between Features and Properties

Jeff: Feature is just a pointer to a spec. A Feature has Properties associated.

Ugo: WSD WG already did some work on F&P

Jeff: Not many people in the WSD WG are pushing for F&P to be included

Steve: The issue has already been discussed in Coordination Group. Next step is that we send a note to WSD WG.

Steve: What about WSDL Attributes? WSD is dropping them.

Ugo: WSDL Attributes were requested by Grid. If Choreography has a connection with Grid, we might also need Attributes.

David: Attributes could be useful to express things like Choreography instance Ids

Steve: ACTION for editors about Attributes relevance (see new Actions)

Steve: We should also look at today’s announcement of new specs that combine Web services and Grid.

 

Model Overview Discussion

Martin: People had some problems with first notation used. Not much feedback so far.

Tony: somewhat confused with execution order as represented in graphical descriptions in spec and the actual run-time order of execution

Steve: We cannot make progress on this item until next week

Monica: collision issue – what happens when one choreography includes a second one?

Nick: will collect all outstanding issues and put under Bugzilla

AOB.

None

Meeting adjourned.
