#237(b): Alternative for supporting a control set style
=> Discussion of how the Consumer can inform the Portlet of the 
   controls "normally" in use for the mode/window state. 

The question here was to allow the Consumer to pass an ordered
list of controls to the Producer and to specify the layout of
those controls in the generated markup.

There was a general feeling that we should spend more time
considering this functionality in the next version of the spec.

There was to be two separate votes: one to decide whether
the Consumer specifies the order of controls, and if that
passes, on whether the Consumer can specify a layout of those
controls within the markup.

Vote results on Consumer specifying the order of controls:

yes:     3
no:      16
abstain: 4

There was no need to vote on the layout question.

Resolution: Deferred to 1.1

-------------------------------------------

The decision on 237 (a) was re-opened. There is a concern that
the Consumer would have to define a stylesheet for each locale
in order to address locale-specific labels.

====================================================================
#240: Remove Interface.UnsupportedLocale fault 
 => Discussion has come down to either we should: 
    1. tighten up the semantics around locales (Consumer MUST 
       select from the set declared as supported through the
       PortletDescription, etc.) ... this would keep the fault 
       definition. 
    2. Leave locales as a prioritized request and allow the 
       Portlet to return any locale ... this would remove the 
       fault definition. 

Resolution: Accepted in modifed form: go with option 2, but keep 
            the fault as a Specialization of OperationFailed in 
            order to allow a portlet to support the tight semantics.

====================================================================
#242: Logic of 127 chars recommendation unclear. 
  => Suggestion looks to add clarity as to why the first 
     127 characters are recommended. 

Resolution: Accepted.

====================================================================
#243: extensions field description 
  => Request breaks the one sentence description of the extensions 
     field into 2 in order to clearly state that extensions elements
     MUST come from a non-wsrp namespace. 

Resolution: Accepted.

====================================================================
#244: Back door to declaring charsets for MarkupTypes 
  => Should the spec comment on the mime type can include 
     optional declarations such as charset? 

Resolution: Accepted. Spec will comment that the mime type should
            not be used in this way.

====================================================================
#245: UserScope and caching 
  => Is a Consumer prohibited or discouraged from caching content 
     when it does not understand the specified userScope? 

Resolution: Withdrawn

====================================================================
#246: userProfileItemDescriptions rename 
  => Consistency says this field should be 
     customUserProfileItemsDescriptions 

Resolution: Accepted.

====================================================================
#247: Rename binding wsdl file 
  => Noting that for consistency, this filename should use 
     the plural "bindings". 

Resolution: Accepted.

====================================================================
#248: Section CSS classes 
  => Question raised whether to define a parallel set of 
     classes that are table specific? 

Resolution: Accepted

====================================================================
#249: Class name length impact on performance 
  => Request by the "performance police" that the class 
     names be shortened. 

Resolution: Deferred. Consider other names over the next week.

====================================================================
#250: Only 1 performBlockingInteraction() per End-User interaction? 
  => What is the harm as long as the blocking semantics are 
     followed? Also, this conflicts with the required semantics 
     of receiving back an InvalidSession or InvalidCookie 
     fault message. 

Resolution: Accepted: Redo the sentence so that a portlet will
            only recieve one performBlockingInteraction() per
            request. Clarify language about allowing for retries.
            Semantics of performBlockingInteraction() are similar 
            to synchronized methods.

====================================================================

There will be an email vote on this issue. Thomas will set this up.
