Subject: Re: [wsrp][all] WSRP Bi-Weekly Phone Call August 8th 9 am EST
Dear WSRP TC Members, here is the proposed Agenda for the WSRP TC Call, Thursday, August 22nd, 9 am PST / 12 pm EST / 6 pm CET: Report on Specification Progress -------------------------------- Duration: 10 min Spec Editors Issues/Questions about Spec Draft --------------------------------- Everybody should please read through the WSRP 0.4 Draft very carefully and give comments in the call tomorrow or by e-mail in the remainder of this week. Duration: 10 min WSRP Implementation and Compliance Test Suite --------------------------------------------- Let's discuss the roadmap for a free open source implementation as well as for a compliance test suite. For the latter, there seems to be agreement that a compliance test suite is very userful/required. Please think about what your respective companies might contribute to the compliance test suite and what might be used as a basis for the test suite (e.g. testing frameworks). Duration: 40 min For reference, here's the Open Source Implementation proposal as well as what has so far been discussed regarding a compliante test suite. WSRP Open Source Implementation Proposal ---------------------------------------- Home: Apache Jakarta Purpose: Provide a framework for WSRP producers that allows for simple implementation and deployment of WSRP services. Integrate with the JSR 168 reference implementation, allow to publish and expose portlets as WSRP services. Provide examples and tools to help implementing WSRP services. Provide WSRP Portal Consumer and simple Consumer for testing WSRP Services. Programming Language: Java Application Server: Apache Jakarta Tomcat SOAP Implementation: Apache XML Axis WSRP Programming Model: WSRPlets (simple servlets exposed as WSRP services) Portlets (JSR 168) exposed as WSRP services Scope: Producer side: - Framework/Runtime for WSRP Producers based on Tomcat - Integration with JSR 168 - Various Example WSRP Services to teach the public how to write WSRP services based on the WSRP framework (e.g. simple Flight Schedule, Stock Quote Service, News Service, ...) Consumer side: - Simple WSRP Client - Portal Client based on JSR 168 Reference Implementation - Stateless Consumer ? Proposed Roadmap: Keep implementation in WSRP TC until Spec is well defined and implementation is reasonably complete, then open-source the code in a new open source project. Go towards this goal in three steps: Phase 1. Prototype and Demo based on early WSRP draft as of September Finish for 3rd Face-to-Face Meeting September, 9th. Distribute implementation to TC members. Phase 2. Complete Implementation of Final Draft for WSRP 1.0 Specification as available in November Finish for 4th Face-to-Face Meeting November 11th. Distribute implementation to TC members. Phase 3. Open Source WSRP Implementation Finish by January 2003, complying to WSRP 1.0 Specification Found Open Source Project in January and donate initial code to Open Source Community WSRP Compliance Test Suite -------------------------- Home: ??? Alan's opinion was that this should not be open source, but owned and controlled by the WSRP TC (Alan, please correct if this is inaccurate) Programming Language: Java SOAP Implementation: ??? Scope: Compliance Test Cases for WSRP Consumers Compliance Test Cases for WSRP Producers Proposed Roadmap: Prepare Compliance Test Suite based on WSRP Draft as of after the September Face-to-Face Finalize implementation based on the WSRP Final Draft to result from the November Face-to-Face Who should do the work: The compliance test suite should not be done by the same team that works on the WSRP implementation to avoid consistent errors or misinterpretations of the specification. IBM Contribution: ----------------- To enable a quick start for the WSRP open source implementation, IBM is willing to do the following work: Initiate the new Open Source Project at Apache Jakarta with the charter to implement and maintain a free WSRP implementation and potentially tools, e.g. for publishing WSRP services to UDDI. Provide and fund the project lead for the new Apache open source project. Implement a modular, servlet-based framework for WSRP producers that will allow WSRP services to use JSPs and taglibs for rendering markup, integrate with the JSR 168 reference implementation and be able to expose portlets as WSRP services and donate that as a starting point for the Open Source Project to cover the "Framework for WSRP Producers" and "Integration with JSR 168" parts of the scope proposed above. IBM wants to provide working prototypes for phase 1 and 2 (see above) to the TC and probably also via alphaworks IBM may provide the source code for phase 1 and 2 prototypes to the interested WSRP/WSIA TC members under an IBM CDA. Conference call details: In the US: 877-302-8255 Outside US: +1 303-928-2609 When you dial in you will be asked for a "conference id". The conference id is: 8814427 Best regards, Thomas ---------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe or unsubscribe from this elist use the subscription manager: <http://lists.oasis-open.org/ob/adm.pl>
