http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200705/msg00025.h
tml
Accepted.
2. Administrative
2.1. New Ballot to approve documents as a Committee in progress
Hal - New ballot ends tonight. We do have sufficient votes for it to
pass. No harm in additional votes.
2.2 Reminder need attestations of successful use
Hal - as of June 1st new rules require that you must attest to use
against a specific conformance clause.
Scott - but that is as of June 1, and these specs are grandfathered in.
2.3 Need Errata editor
Hal - looking for an errata editor to replace Eve and her faithful
service. We need a volunteer...
3. Public Reviews
3.1 60 Public review of 4 specs (AI#290) - status
Hal - editors: what is the status?
Paul - waiting on confirmation that we had met the requirements.
Hal - we need to put together a list
Scott - But we need to solve URI issue.
Consider docs resubmitted as best effort to the standard. As long as
URI issue is sorted out.
Brian - talked with Mary and URI can be whatever we want, within the
guidelines. Send her an email to confirm it. Then she will place docs
in the appropriate place on the docs.oasis-open.org site.
Hal - just put the URI in there and admin will take care of it.
Scott - links are to doc.oasis not kavi.
Hal - for each set of docs, send chairs a link to current docs.
Paul - will aggregate the links to the docs and send to chairs.
** new AI ***
3.2 Public Review of Errata Document (AI#291) - status
Hal - Brian inquired and OASIS basically said that there must be a clean
public review. And we have two issues 1) a typo. 2) new errata item
that has been reported and not processed.
Two choices: fix typo and vote now? Or process new errata and include
it?
Brian - also editorial issues. Need to do editorial changes before we
submit. Suggest that we fix typo and do editorial changes and submit.
Hal - Need volunteer to do this? Hopefully by next call.
Scott - if it is just the formatting stuff, I can do it by next call.
Hal - vote to move errata to public review once changes are made.
Scott - pending someone to officially take over errata, will take it.
Hal - We need a full majority vote to public review.
The typo issue can be found at
http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200704/msg00034.htm
l
Hal - need 3 votes:
One: vote to committee draft
Two: affirm that there is no substantive change
Three: move to 15 day public review
Scott move
Eve second
No objections to unanimous consent.
Scott - where to put the errata?
Eve - put it in the 2.0 folder, not the post 2.0 folder.
4. New Documents
4.1 Updated WSDL uploaded to document repository
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/security-services/200705/msg00030.h
tml
Hal - same doc as posted to mailing list?
Greg - yes.
Hal - what are we going to do with this doc over time? Don't think we
want to take it to a standard but maybe to committee spec?
Greg - seems reasonable.
5. Other Business
Scott - create the post 2.0 folder for these new docs.
Hal - document what we are doing on the wiki
Hal - document formats, Scott posted something re his action item
recently. Hal gives a short history on formatting. TCs have taken
different approaches and even had their own format. There is pressure
to have XHTML because of access and uniformity. Wanted to require TC to
provide editable format. Also there was a group that wanted something,
that ended up being PDF, that would have fixed line numbers. Now XHTML
has become a problem. Current policy is to try and produce good XHTML
but if it is too difficult, then HTML is ok.
? - Goals are laudable, but are they written down somewhere?
Hal - yes, a document that changed over time. Not sure where it is, Hal
to have action item to find it and post it to the list.
Scott - my concern is that all of this must go though Mary or admin
every time.
Hal - agreed, one concern is how administrators spend their time. This
and IPR have taken more time than expected.
Scott - we need a consensus about level of quality that is sufficient
and is solely editor driven.
Hal - will pass that along to OAISIS
Scott - Is the goal readability or XHTML?
Greg - can XSLT help?
Scott - Doubtful. The best we've don't here is save as html and then
tidy it up. Readability vs. valid XHTML, we need to know what the goal
is.
Hal - Will try and clarify intend.
Hal - the other issue was about conformance criteria. There is a
request from this TC and others about conformance clauses. Hal to take
action to post a link to conformance clause requirements and a link to
how to communicate with the TAB.
** new AIs **
Scott - we'll need to address this with SAML.
Hal - my understanding is that SAML 2 meets the criteria. Now
attestation will be to a conformance clause.
Scott - Suggest that conformance statement should be relative to an
errata version. This would allow for substantive changes in errata.
Hal - but you can't make such changes.
Scott - but this would be a loophole but is consistent with the
language.
Hal - but the intent of errata is to not introduce changes that are not
interoperable.
Scott - but an erratum isn't useful when held to this standard. Or we
need a way to produce minor revision of the specs.
Hal - Scott, helpful if you could put down your suggestions. FYI, there
is a TC that is being formed around the issue of conformance. We are
looking for practical feedback and not trying to make everyone's life is
harder.
General agreement that more discussion is warranted.
