charlton: Dieter, do you want to share the CD on adobe connect>

Martin: Chair: Do we want to vote on CD yet? Reminded TC members of IPR policy WRT CDs

charlton: http://my.adobe.acrobat.com/scabpel

Martin: Dieter, main goal was a clean copy to baseline comments.

Martin: Martin: Once we go to CD we won't go back to Workign Drafts as per naming guidelines

Martin: Mike R: Moves to accept as a CD; 2nd Dieter.

Martin: This requires full majority vote

Martin: (more than 50% of total TC voting membership)

Martin: Danny: what is the quorum issue?

Martin: Martin: If meeting is quorate and no one objects, full member vote carries

Martin: Jacques: Company is in process of doing an IP search, so if made a CD today Fujistu would have to leave as memebers for the
present.

Martin: Martin: don't see the need for a rush

Martin: Charlton: given timings of holiday might be curteous to hold off vote until a month from today

Martin: hold a CD on 17th January

charlton: Any reason why we couldn't wait until January 17th>

charlton: i agree with Martin, is there a need to do this now?

Martin: Mike R: moves to postone previous motion

charlton: I second the postpone

Martin: s/postpone/postpone to 17th January

Martin: 2nd chalrton

Martin: No objections, motion carried

Martin: Are there any immediate comments on the document

Martin: Martin: we just tried to vote as CD why do we need an overview now.

Martin: Please read and post comments on the list

Martin: Topic: call schedule

Martin: next two calls planned: 20 dec and 10th jan

Martin: 3td jan has already been cancelled (as 27th)

charlton: i would not be able to attend dec 20th

Alex Yiu: question ... : do we have the raw minute for last week conf call?

Martin: quorom is 8, so need this to make decisions

Mark Ford: +1 to cancelling meeting

Martin: Chair: seems likely to be quorate

Martin: Mark Ford: motions to cancel 20th Dec meeting; charlton 2nds

Martin: no discussion, no objections, motion carried.

Martin: next call on january 10th

Martin: Topic: new issues

Martin just realised i should be on another call by now and shouldnt have done minutes

Martin: no new issues raised

Martin: topic: issues discussion

Martin:  Issue 11 http://www.osoa.org/jira/browse/BPEL-11

Michael Rowley: If the variable has an initialization expression (a from-spec) then that becomes the default value for the variable
in cases where the SCA component does not provide a value for that property.  If a value is provided for the property, the
expression is not evaluated.  If the from-spec is a literal value, where it has the following form:

 

   <from><literal>literal value</literal></from>

 

then the literal value will be represented as the default value in the component type for the process.  Any other kind of
initialization expression will not be represented in the component type.

Michael Rowley: Update:

Michael Rowley: If the variable has an initialization from-spec then that becomes the default value for the variable in cases where
the SCA component does not provide a value for that property.  If a value is provided for the property, the initialization from-spec
is not evaluated.

 

If the from-spec is a literal value, where it has the following form:

   <from><literal>literal value</literal></from>

then the literal value will be represented as the default value in the component type for the process.  Any other kind of
initialization from-spec will not be represented in the component type.  However, even though the other kinds of initialization
from-spec are not represented in the component type, they would still be computed and used as the default value for the property
when the component does not provide a value for that property.

Martin: Sanjay: can the value of a property include a bpel expression?

Martin: Mike R; Yes

Martin: Mike E: point on mailing list. any value can be set to a complex expression computed at runtime, and prob need changes in
assembly spec

Martin: Mike R: assembly spec allows this

Michael Rowley: From the assembly spec: "Implementation types other than composite can declare properties in an
implementation-dependent form (eg annotations within a Java class), or through a property declaration of exactly the form described
above in a componentType file."

Mike Edwards: that text does not deal with the default values in the componentType

Martin: Danny: there wont be a default value if its computed

Alex Yiu: Does the proposal need to address the "mustSupply" issue also? 

Martin: Mike R: only literals in the Component Type

Martin: Najeeb: this can be non-deterministic

Martin: Mike R: can only mark a varibale as a property if it is unique across process.

Martin: Mike R: so rules are deterministic

Martin: Mark: discussion is relevent to the issue raised

Martin: Alex: does the  mustSupply flag need to be considered as part of this issue?

Martin: Chair: do you have any proposed text?

Martin: Alex: not yet

Michael Rowley: If a BPEL variable that is used as a property has an initialization expression (a from-spec) then mustSupply="false"
must be specified.

Martin: Chair: might also be a different issue

Martin: Chair: include Mike R's text above at end of proposed resolution

Michael Rowley: ... on the component type property declaration.

Alex Yiu: I would suggest to just use "from-spec" instead of "expression (a from-spec)".

Martin: so text of full proposal to issue 11 is:

Michael Rowley: If a BPEL variable that is used as a property has an initialization from-spec then mustSupply="false" must be
specified on the component type property declaration.

Michael Rowley: If the variable has an initialization from-spec then that becomes the default value for the variable in cases where
the SCA component does not provide a value for that property.  If a value is provided for the property, the initialization from-spec
is not evaluated.

 

If the from-spec is a literal value, where it has the following form:

   <from><literal>literal value</literal></from>

then the literal value will be represented as the default value in the component type for the process.  Any other kind of
initialization from-spec will not be represented in the component type.  However, even though the other kinds of initialization
from-spec are not represented in the component type, they would still be computed and used as the default value for the property
when the component does not provide a value for that property.

Michael Rowley: If a BPEL variable that is used as a property has an initialization from-spec then mustSupply="false" must be
specified on the component type property declaration.

Martin: the last two entries marked Michael Rowley are the single proposal

Martin: Mike R moves to adopt the propsal above, Alex  2nds

Martin: s/propsal/proposal/

Martin: Alex: how does intraspection effect this

Martin: chair: is this/could this, be a new issue

Martin: Mike R: its relevant and would only need some minor text

Michael Rowley: If a component property value is specified (and the default is not to be used) then the initialization from-spec
will be evaluated, but it will not be used for the variable.  The component property value will be used.

Martin: Sanjay: does this contradict assembly

Martin: Mike R: no it supports it

Martin: Mark Ford objects to unanimous consent

Martin: motion expires due to lack of time

Martin: AOB: None
