Attendees: Dieter, Cecile, Steve, Stephen, Arjun, Susan(?)
Regrets: Shailendra, Abdeslem
- Cecile discussed topics outlined in her mail.
- Agreement that amount of information points to
two documents (not three as initially thought).
First document with base functionality.
Rest in second document.
- Moving GetMData description to base document.
- Suggestion to clean up soap/web-services header
contents description.
Arjun to look at WSN to see how they have done
it and adopt similar approach.
- POBox is viewed as Consumer with getData() interface.
Discussion of Dieter's pattern diagram.
Agreement that there is no need to externalize
it as a separate entity in the registry.
- Discussion on structuring the RegistrationManager's
interface between the base version and the
extended version (to be included in second document).
Should the additional calls be structured under
two separate interfaces or
is an inheritance structure possible from the
extended RegistrationManager to the base RegistrationManager.
WSDL1.1 does not include inheritance, but WSDL2.0 (expected in Oct
2005)
will (Steven to look into this).
Agreed to represent as two separate interfaces
with note that they will be put into the inheritance
framework when WSDL2.0 comes online.
- Agreement to say all versions of INFO-D (base/extended etc.)
will include a RegistrationManager (whether publishers/consumers
actually use it or not).
- Dieter asked for feedback on his INFO-D Patterns
document. Steven suggested that patterns be included
in Use-case document so that patterns point to
the specific use-case as a guide to readers.
- Cecile plans to separate document and clean it up
and post to the INFO-D web-site before next week's
meeting (Tuesday?).
- GGF-15 (Oct 3-6 05) plans discussion.
Monday Face-to-Face. Current version of
draft to be advertised (on INFO-D website?) to
satisfy pro-forma requirement
of GGF-15 organizers.
