Subject: Regrep Paris meeting minutes
OASIS Regrep TC Paris Meeting, Thursday 15 June 2000 attending: Nagwa Abdelghfour, Sun Terry Allen, Commerce One, chairman Lisa Carnahan, NIST Robin Cover, ISOGEN Una Kearns, Documentum Jamie Walker, Boeing Priscilla Walmsley, XMLSolutions Yutaka Yoshida, Sun attending as guests: Megan MacMillan, Solista * wants to join committee; this is a task for new chair Eamonn Neylon, Informata.com * wants to join committee; this is a task for new chair Yen-Chiun Kuo and Eho-Cheng (Frank) Lo, NIIEPA - National Information Infrastructure Enterprise Promotion Association (Taiwan) * it wasn't clear, but very likely want to join committee; this is a task for new chair meeting called to order at 2 P.M. - discuss future of the TC Members do want to continue, as they are not confident that EBXML will actually cover the same ground and is more specific, and as XML.org needs some kind of technical support. It was agreed that the administrative base needs specification as does interoperation of registries. Terry agrees to tweak the statement of purpose to say that the TC's specification should "support" the registration of XML-related entities, not just be "for" that purpose. - NIST update NIST has proposed an info model and has implemented it, along with the old implementation for the withdrawn OASIS tech spec. IMS has decided it doesn't need a detailed registry; they are more interested in profiles of owners of learning objects and don't even necessarily want a repository - you'd contact the owner of the learning objects independently. - EBXML update No recent news. - XML.org update Was to launch imminently but postponed because it doesn't have sufficient submissions, (so the repository hasn't been populated). - review previous Design Principles and Scenarios with a view to affirming them The TC agreed that the Design Principles and the Scenarios are generally okay; Terry is to revise them lightly and submit them for a vote. - NIIEPA brief description It's a think tank, interested in XML in general for a 5-year e-commerce and supply chain IT improvement project. They have a registry and repository project. - review Boeing Baseline document esp. for functional requirements Jamie Walker described the document briefly as a high-level overview that deals with all the pieces Boeing sees necessary. - review NIST Info Model as basis for new spec Lisa described the context of the Info Model and it was agreed that it constituted a proposal for a new OASIS spec. We should be prepared to start discussing it in pieces and to vote on some revision of it at an August meeting. - elect chair pro tempore Terry resigned as chairman and called for nominees for chairman pro tempore. Lisa was the only nominee, was elected, and took over for the rest of the meeting. The committee decided not to vote to recommend to the Board that it appoint Lisa chair, as we weren't clear on procedure; Terry has notified the Advisory Committee on Technical Committees of the change, and it will be for the ACTC to figure out what to do. The sense of the meeting was certainly that we want Lisa to continue as chair. - determine schedule for rest of year There is to be a biweekly conf call at 7 AM Pacific every other Thursday starting 29 June 00. NOTE CHANGE OF TIME AND DAY, the first to accomodate East Asian participants and the second to avoid schedule conflicts for current members. We agreed to meet on a day before or after the August EBXML meeting, which is to be held on the S.F. Peninsula somewhere. - decide how to proceed with spec We decided to break the NIST info model into pieces and discuss them seriatim in phone conferences. - adjourned at 5 PM as planned. Terry is to rewrite Design Principles & Scenarios; notify ACTC of change in chair, and to provide Lisa with info about how to do chair things. Terry is to write up the application of THTTP to our work, with a placeholder for I2X and what the return looks like, and a proposal for an XML format of lists of URLs and URNs. regards, Terry
