Editorial team report

... Converted the "Understanding WS-Policy white paper" to primer in W3C format and checked in into CVS

<cferris> RESOLUTION: close the issue 3586 - no changes in the doc, effectively solved by other work

Clarify the relation of overlapping definitions in the fr.

David: Issue 3562 - the work is ongoing

Possible out of Scope issues

Paul: Issue 3592 is not in the scope

<cferris> http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3592

Glen: looks implementation specific

<monica> I think this is actually playback.

<scribe> ACTION: Willima to chech on Seimas whether to close the issue 3592 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/08/23-ws-policy-minutes.html#action04]

<trackbot> Sorry, couldn't find user - Willima

<cferris> action 4 = William to check on Seumas as to whether to close issue 3592

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3616

Paul: proposes to make it as a candidate to be resolved next

Glen: agrees

<danroth> +1 to Glen's comment and the chair's proposal

Dale: negotiation - out-of-scope

<GlenD> As long as we don't preclude discussion of negotiation use-cases, I think we're good to push particular negotiation mechanisms, etc, off to v.next

Dale: intersection is not defined
... not an issue

<cferris> note: Dale might want to augment the minutes with his points on the possible inclusion of some ranking attribute

Chris: there was a lot of support for negotian at F2F

Paul: mark the issue as be done next

<dmoberg> A prerequisite of negotiation is that some way of marking ranking or preference exists. So no point of going into negotiation without the prerequisites. But maybe some blessed way of putting ranking on policy alternatives would be useful. Paul notes that this can always be done by an extension.

<cferris> RESOLUTION: Issue 3616 closed and marked as v.next: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3616

<cferris> ACTION: PaulC and Chris to investigate how to mark/close an issue as designated for v.next [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/08/23-ws-policy-minutes.html#action05]

<cferris> RESOLUTION: Issue 3552 closed with proposal in bugzilla entry http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3552

c) Require assertions to be distinguished from parameter elements, Frederick http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3549

Frederick: proposes to continue the discussion
... this issue is only to separate parameters from assertions

Paul: Frederick needs clarifications on the email loop http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2006Aug/0117.html

Frederick: normalization now is a separate issue

Dan: please provide some examples to illustrate the ambiguity

Frederick: need to add some additional details in the text to overall model

Asir: agrees on the substance but need to understand what exactly should be clarified

Fabian: please define the term "nested assertion"

<paulc> nested assertion is still not defined in Frederick's proposal

Dan: the text is correct. Clarifying the issue may create a problem

Frederick: the goal was to have a discussion and also to make it clear how to do the nesting

<asir> Frederick, I answered this question on e-mail - http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2006Aug/0140.html

Christopher: need clarification of the issue

Dan: proposes to discuss the issue in Primer

Paul: Frederich should enumarate the questions, and others to review

Maryann: Amend the proposal to move this to Primer

Monica: also proposes to consider pushing this to Primer

<monica> Correction: We should be conscious not to push so much to the Primer so it doesn't implicitly become a normative document.

<scribe> ACTION: Frederick to enumarate th equestion - issue http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3549 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/08/23-ws-policy-minutes.html#action09]

Add discussion/examples of domain expressions

Paul: Issue 3557 - Asir to get clarification from Ashok through email

Major Technical Issues (30 minutes)

<cferris> expectation setting, re-raise this discussion after umit and ashok have had a chance to respond

<maryann> so chris suggested that Umit will be on vacation and that she will then probably need some time to respond to issue 3557

Frederick: Proposes to close the issue

<FrederickHirsch> explanation - case cannot occur

<cferris> RESOLUTION: Issue 3548 closed with exlanation in bugzilla entry http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=3548. The edge case can never occur

c) Semantics of successful intersection determined by domain-specific assertion content

Paul: there is no any proposal

<cferris> glen intends this to start the discussion

<cferris> paul suggests some email discussion working off of this thread: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2006Aug/0138.html

<maryann> update with a pointer to the email thread?

Glen: clarifies that email thread contained the necessary details. Will add them to bugzilla

Possible out-of-scope issues

<whenry> I had replied to Umit on this topic - I replied to the group

Minor technical issues (30 minutes)

New issues (since Aug 7)

major technical issues (30 minutes)

New issues

a) Policy framework should document extensibility points

David: Issue 3590 is open. The proposal from Asir to close without action
... framework has extensibility points, which are documented well
... Attrribute can be added to the policy or to the policy reference

Child elements for policy reference. Any child should be treated as assertion. It should be documented

David: make a change in a notational convention

Christopher: Proposes to close the issue and assign it to the Editors.

<cferris> here are the 5 :

<cferris> wsp:Policy/@{any}

<cferris> wsp:Policy/.../wsp:PolicyReference/@{any}

<cferris> wsp:Policy/.../wsp:PolicyReference/{any}

<cferris> wsp:Policy/wsp:ExactlyOne/@{any}

<cferris> wsp:Policy/wsp:ExactlyOne/wsp:All/@{any}

<cferris> the first two can be handled editorially, since the elipses are already in the spec

<asir> link is http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2006Aug/0108.html

<cferris> daveo's are about attributes... asir's point out element extensibility

David: extensibility points are not clearly documented

<cferris> daveo suggests that this confusion may be exactly why we need some clarity in the spec

<cferris> proposal part 1, document attribute extensbility of wsp:Policy/@{any} and wsp:Policy/.../wsp:PolicyReference/@{any}

<cferris> part2 are the remaining 3 in bugzilla

<cferris> plus the ones pointed out by Asir

<cferris> +1 to daveo

Paul: need email dialog between Asir and David about extensibilty points

<cferris> ACTION: Editors to apply proposal part 1, document attribute extensbility of wsp:Policy/@{any} and wsp:Policy/.../wsp:PolicyReference/@{any} [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/08/23-ws-policy-minutes.html#action14]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-73 - Apply proposal part 1, document attribute extensbility of wsp:Policy/@{any} and wsp:Policy/.../wsp:PolicyReference/@{any} [on Editors - due 2006-08-30].

Chris: Proposes to make everything extansible

<Fabian> now, bijan, that's at least a motivation we can put in the spec :-)

<cferris> ACTION: Asir and daveO to carry on the discussion of extensibility points on the mailing list [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2006/08/23-ws-policy-minutes.html#action15]

<trackbot> Created ACTION-74 - And daveO to carry on the discussion of extensibility points on the mailing list [on Asir Vedamuthu - due 2006-08-30].

Asir: Proposes to create a new issue with the requirements to extensibility points

David and Paul disagree

<cferris> paul agrees with daveo that there is no need of the overhead of a separate issue for dealing with those points that are in disagreement

Coordination item, Maryann Hondo

Maryann: already sent a note to WS-Addressing

Paul: please update in bugzilla

Christopher: Proposes to defer c)

f)Clarify conversion of compact to normal form in Framework section 4.

Frederick: Possibly there are some issues in specifying the normalization process

Paul: Need to start email thread with bug# reference

and insert the link to bugzilla

Paul: email dialog + bugzilla
