http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-addressing-comments/2007Mar/0000.html
20:13:50 [PaulKnight]
Bob: this one describes a pretty clear typo
20:14:51 [PaulKnight]
Bob: This one is an editorial item, resolved as proposed.
20:14:59 [bob]
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-addressing/2007Apr/0003.html
20:15:14 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Next: attaching policy to an EPR.
20:16:08 [PaulKnight]
TRutt: At WS-Policy, the feeling was that WS-Addressing should address it
20:16:19 [gpilz]
q+
20:16:32 [PaulKnight]
TRutt: It should be pretty fast, about 3 pages
20:16:51 [PaulKnight]
MrGoodner: Skeptical of how fast it will be
20:16:52 [David_Illsley]
q+
20:17:10 [PaulKnight]

20:18:10 [PaulKnight]
David: Don't think it should be in metadata spec.
20:18:53 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Earlier in WSA we did not feel we could address it well, and returned it to WS-Policy group
20:19:34 [PaulKnight]
Bob: NOt sure we have enough domain knowledge in the group to do it. It is more in the purview of WS-Policy.
20:19:37 [anish]
i would the ws-policy wg would review our spec

20:20:41 [PaulKnight]
TRutt: We just need to come up with a way to reference policy EPR.
20:21:38 [PaulKnight]
Anish: It should be done either here or in WS-Policy. We could potentially do it if we have the expertise. Perhaps we could form a joint task force with WS-Policy.
20:21:56 [PaulKnight]
Bob: record this as a new item
20:22:39 [PaulKnight]
ACTION: Bob to coordinate with WS-Policy about some way to address it jointly.

Bob: Next Item from Anish
20:24:08 [PaulKnight]
Bob: We will accept this as a new issue.
20:24:29 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Now for the main event: F vs. G
20:24:53 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Consensus forming around G or G'; little support for F
20:25:14 [PaulKnight]
TRutt: G is less verbose in most normal cases
20:25:41 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Any objectin to using G as the base for further wordsmithing?
20:25:57 [PaulKnight]
Bob: No objectin, we will use G going forward.

TRutt: It is a user refinement of the capabilities.
20:34:53 [PaulKnight]

See: http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/~checkout~/2006/ws/policy/ws-policy-framework.html?content-type=text/html;%20charset=utf-8#rPolicy_Alternative
20:40:00 [monica]
Explicitly: An alternative with zero assertions indicates no behaviors. An alternative with one or more assertions indicates behaviors implied by those, and only those assertions.
20:40:02 [TRutt_]
q+
20:40:15 [monica]
Can't infer from empty.
20:40:26 [monica]
When an assertion whose type is part of the policy's vocabulary is not included in a policy alternative, the policy alternative without the assertion type indicates that the assertion will not be applied in the context of the attached policy subject.
20:40:43 [PaulKnight]
Anish: Would ike to be able to state that you can have ReplyTo could be anon and FaultTo can be non-anon
20:40:51 [PaulKnight]
s/ike/like
20:40:57 [David_Illsley]
monica, the alternative would include an assertion, the wsam:Anonymous one for which we define the semantics

20:42:46 [anish]
i agree with gil, that this is tangential to the current discussion
20:43:14 [anish]
that is what i was trying to estabilish, that split usecase is not supported by any of the proposal (including mine)

gpilz: It is tangential.

20:43:50 [David_Illsley]
anish, I agree with your statement that we don't need to support that detailed usecase
20:44:31 [PaulKnight]
TRutt: It is one of our use cases we need to support. It's enough that the implementation supports either anon or non-anon.

TRutt: The algorithm treats empty as having some implied restriction. If we can come up with some text to deal with it...
20:52:53 [PaulKnight]
Anish: It is counterintuitive. I'd like an assertion that says "I support addressing."
20:53:21 [PaulKnight]

20:55:43 [PaulKnight]
Ram: The absence of top-level or the absence of the nested assertion should be handled differently.
20:56:20 [PaulKnight]
Monica: The primer does not address the nested assertion explicitly.
20:57:05 [PaulKnight]
Ram: The nested assertions are to qualify the top-level assertion.
20:57:37 [PaulKnight]

Mrgo: This is a new use case we have not considered before.
21:02:31 [bob]
q+
21:02:42 [PaulKnight]
Anish: We should have an assertion that simply expresses support for WSA.

MrGo: I thought that was what proposal G was for.
21:03:53 [Zakim]

TRutt: That capability was considered several proposals ago. F & G are simple use cases.

q-
21:05:27 [PaulKnight]
TRutt: The intersection algorithm precludes some approaches.
21:06:18 [PaulKnight]

21:10:05 [PaulKnight]

Monica: Is that domain-specific processing?

21:24:45 [PaulKnight]
Anish: Why should we have this restriction described in my comments?
21:25:24 [PaulKnight]
Bob: the WS-Policy group indicated it could not be done, due to the level of abstraction. It was in Chris Ferris' message to WSA.
21:25:55 [PaulKnight]
Anish: I will look at that.
21:27:08 [PaulKnight]

Bob: Once we think we have a resolution, we should send it to WS-Policy, according to the W3C policy.
21:36:47 [PaulKnight]
Trutt: We can send it as a reference to the new editor's draft.

21:39:29 [PaulKnight]
MrGo: Don't need to deal with that now, with WS-Policy.
21:39:52 [PaulKnight]
Anish: That seems to take us back to proposal F, not G.
21:40:24 [PaulKnight]
Bob: The nuance is the point at which the vocabulary is defined.
21:41:11 [monica]
there is no negation in current ws-p
21:41:12 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Maybe we should excise the assertions if they are so difficult to understand.
21:41:56 [anish]
if we all agree that there is no negation, then i don't have a problem. But like Gil, I remember Chris ferris vehemently stating the negation part
21:42:10 [monica]
which chair?
21:42:19 [PaulKnight]
Bob: I have solicited one of the WS-Policy co-chairs' opinion on this, and it appeared that either F or G is possible; G was a bit better.
21:42:22 [anish]
it would be easier if the policy wg resolved this issue once and for all
21:43:01 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Suggest a call next Monday... It is a bank holiday in UK... ?
21:44:15 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Aim for April 16th for next meeting. We need as much attendance as possible.
21:44:50 [PaulKnight]
Bob: Meeting adjourned due to lack of linear arguments.
21:45:59 [PaulKnight]
Bob: As of today, we have resolved on G. A through F are dead. There were no objections when the question was called.
21:47:22 [PaulKnight]
Anish: Initiating circular discussion among WS-Policy members on the call. Minutes not taken.
