2. Open Action Item Review and Discussion


        AI20090109-001
- Mike to agenda discussion for feedback from the 
         
      LSC regarding milestone adjustment at next
SC meeting 
         
      (Feb 13th, 2009). 

         
      STATUS: DONE (Agenda'd as part of item #3
below).

        AI20090109-002
- Bob to create and distribute a document around
         
      the compliance topic. See #4 below for more
info.

        AI20090109-003
Mark to double check on whether he saw a panel discussion
         
      abstract in the queue for Java One and email
his findings.

        AI20081212-001
- Coordinate an effort with Assembly TC to produce an 
         
      SCA primer as the specs approach standardization
(in review).

         
      STATUS: On Hold until we get closer to standardization.
         
      
        
        
3. Overall TC Milestones Status as discussed
by LSC:
  
        Tentative
dates for key milestones: 
         
      Sep 15, 2008 - Raise the bar for opening new
issues (TC optional) 
         
      Sep 29, 2008 - Incorporate RFC 2119 language

         
      Nov 15, 2008 - Detailed design for testing
work 
         
      Jan 23, 2009 - Assembly TC to start 1st Public
Review (60 day) 
         
      Feb 23, 2009 - Other TCs to start 1st Public
Review (60 day) 
         
      May 31, 2009 - Finish all the work 
         
      July 4, 2009 - Submit specs to OASIS for OS
vote 
        
        These
dates need to be adjusted.
        
        Two
Issues/Challenges to be resolved:
        A)
Testing Effort.
        B)
What's the definition of being SCA 1.1 compliant.

        The
LSC is handling both. They are looking at proposals and 
        Will
provide recommendation proposals to the Steering Committee.

        Jeff/Sanjay
to report LSC progress towards establishing the 
        target
timelines (including testing effort) for the TC's based 
        on
LSC discussion. Do we have updates to the above timeline yet?
         
              


4. Compliant implementation plans
        
        We
know that we need something about mid year.  There are
        several
companies working this but implementation timing is 
        unknown.
 Open Source (Apache Tuscany, looks to be one
        source
for at least some of the TC's).  Each TC will have to
        make
it's own decision on what compliant implementations
        they
are going to use based on what's available in the 
        timeframe
of standardization and what their test plan looks
        like.

        The
SC must eventually resolve the question of "how it will
        make
approval decisions" and communicate this to the TC's. 
        It
is expected that the Testing Plans for each TC will 
        incorporate
implementation/testing aspects which encompass
        the
broader "SCA" picture.        

        Do
we have a feeling for where the TC's are in defining their
        test
plans?  Have any selected implementations which they
        will
use for compliancy?

        Bob
asked that a document be produced or at least generated to 
        facilitate
the discussion around compliancy.  He was going to
        take
a first pass at this.


        
5. Java One Participation (June 2-5,
2009) discussion
        
        Any
updates on panel investigation?


6. Any Other Business?
        
        
7. Future SC Agenda Topics? 
        
        
8. Next Meeting 

           -
The next regular teleconference is scheduled for March 13th, 2009 
         
      9:00am PST, 12:00pm EST, 5:00pm UK

        (OpenCSA
Steering Committee calls are scheduled for the second Friday
