Call for volunteers to help resolve SCA-J issues

[Simon Nash <NASH@uk.ibm.com>]

I'm looking for volunteers to help with
proposals/ideas for resolving some of the open issues in the SCA-J TC that
don't currently have specific proposals for resolution.  It would
be great if we could make progress on a few of these at next week's F2F.
 Is anyone willing to offer to help with any of the issues listed
below that don't currently have a name attached?  What constitutes
"help" can be very broadly defined :-)

The following are considered (by me)
to be more straightforward:

JAVA-38  Inconsistent rules for
the use of @reference annotation
JAVA-39  Incorrect example in Java
Component Implementation Spec v1.00 - Sec 1.2.4 (Anish)
JAVA-47  Missing description of
what the @EagerInit annotation does
JAVA-48  @Callback annotation does
not feature in section on Interfaces
JAVA-49  Version requirements for
SDO, JAXB and JAX-WS 

The following are considered (by me)
to be more controversial and/or difficult:

JAVA-1   Accessing SCA Services
from non-SCA component code
JAVA-2   Determining the data binding
to use (e.g. JAXB or SDO)
JAVA-3   Local services expose
implementation classes as their type
JAVA-6    @AllowsPassByReference
requires more detailed description
JAVA-13  ComponentContext.getProperty(...)
ill defined
JAVA-14  Conversation Attributes
are not in Java Schema 
JAVA-21  Clarify Request Scope
lifetime
JAVA-25  Callback Simplification
(Simon)
JAVA-27  Security Annotations in
generated Component Type
JAVA-30  "Process" Scope
JAVA-37  Injection on private fields
- or not
JAVA-41  Inconsistent method description
for @Init and @Destroy annotations
JAVA-46  equals() method on ServiceReference
and CallableReference
