Subject: Bindings work products progression

Folks, I've checked with TC admin
and the following appears to me to be the best way forward for the WS binding
work products:
A) WS Binding Specification:
Move current CSPRD03 to Committee Specification,
subject to four designated cross-references:
1) Normative references for SCA-Assembly,
SCA-Policy and SCA-JCAA updated to use the "Latest" reference
for each work product.
2) Non-normative reference to WS-Testcases
to be updated to point to the "Latest" reference for that work
product.
Note: the "Related work" references
to 1) and 2) already use the "Latest" references.
Note from TC admin (Paul Knight): "Yes,
that's right, it can be handled using the designated cross references (DCR)
process. We might also suggest using the "Latest" references
(instead of references to specific CS publications), so they will not need
to be updated as the various specifications move to higher stages. This
is preferable to constantly using DCRs.
Note that OASIS does not have a prohibition
against using variable (Latest) references in Normative References. Some
other standards organizations or individual TCs may desire specific stage
references. OASIS does prohibit a DCR from introducing a change to a new
numeric Version (capital V) of a reference."
If there's an objection to using the
"Latest" reference to the other SCA specifications then we would
need to coordinate this with the other TCs so that we can have the update
made to their CS versions. Note that the "Latest" reference
is only "Latest 1.1", any version change beyond that would require
an update to the URLs anyway, so at this point I don't see a need to refer
to anything more specific.
One comment on the current CSPRD is
that for some reason the internal hyperlinks (e.g. [SCA-Assembly]) while
hyperlinked in the PDF version are not generated as links in the HTML version.
I don't know if its possible to have the HTML version re-generated from
the PDF (and checked!) as part of this process to fix the links.
Here's the TC admin suggested motion
for the move to CS with designated cross references (modified a bit by
me):
>>>>>>
[someone] moves that the TC approves
the Chair requesting that TC Administration hold a Special Majority Ballot
to approve the SCA Web Service Binding Specification Version 1.1 contained
in http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-wsbinding-1.1-spec-csprd03.html
as a Committee Specification, in addition the TC approves the Chair requesting
that TC Administration update the following Designated Cross-References
as defined by https://www.oasis-open.org/policies-guidelines/tc-process#crossRefs
during publication of the Committee Specification:
- Current reference to be updated: line
31: [SCA-Assembly] OASIS Committee Specification Draft 07, Service Component
Architecture Assembly Model Specification Version 1.1, January 2011 http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-assembly/sca-assembly-1.1-spec-csd07.pdf
Expected approval status and date: Replace
with Latest version link.
- Current reference to be updated: line
35: [SCA-Policy] OASIS Committee Draft 04, SCA Policy Framework Specification
Version 1.1, September 2010 http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-policy/sca-policy-1.1-spec-cd04.pdf
Expected approval status and date: Replace
with Latest version link.
- Current reference to be updated: line
38: [SCA-JCAA] OASIS Committee Specification Draft 05, Service Component
Architecture SCA-J Common Annotations and APIs Specification Version 1.1,
November 2010 http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-j/sca-javacaa-1.1-spec-csd05.pdf
Expected approval status and date: Replace
with Latest version link.
- Current reference to be updated: line
91: [WS-Testcases] OASIS Committee Draft 01, "TestCases for the SCA
Web Service Binding Specification Version 1.1", July 2010, http://docs.oasis-open.org/opencsa/sca-bindings/sca-wsbinding-1.1-testcases-cd01.pdf
Expected approval status and date: Replace
with Latest version link.
The TC acknowledges that approval and
publication of the specification may be delayed by the Designated Cross-Reference
Changes.
<<<<<<
An alternative approach that was suggested
was to create a new working draft with the updated links it in, and then
have that approved as CS following the Non-Material Change process.
B) WS Binding Testcase document/test
artefacts:
Approve a new CSD package with updated
test artefacts, with one update to the Testcases document to update the
[SCA-WSBinding] Normative reference to use the "Latest" reference
for the specification.
A new PR for the updated CSD is not
necessarily needed; if we did want to move the testcases to CS we would
either to agree that the changes were Non-Material, or else proceed with
a PR.
Note that this can be done independently
of A) if we update the testcases reference in the specification to use
the "Latest" reference as suggested.
