Re: agenda and goals

Hi Mark,

Agenda proposals in this mail, comments in a separate one to follow.

Items to be discussed:

0. Charter, timetable and deliverables of sub-committee
1. Requirements
2. Models to be supported
3. What kind of spec (interconnect, API etc)
4. Terminology/definitions
5. Protocol ideas/applicability of other work (e.g. OMG/JCP Activity
Service)

Inputs:

BEA, Choreology, HP submissions and comments thereon
"Four levels" discussion from last night's conf. call (summarized by
Peter Furniss on main list)

Outputs:

Minutes that show

a) areas of consensus
b) areas of continuing debate/more inputs needed
c) new issues raised
d) references to other sub-groups.

Another thought on the meeting. There are people dialling in from the
U.S. How feasible for the European attendees to start later and go later
(e.g. 1 pm to 8 pm, with an hour's break at 3.00)?. We can handle this
logistically, if HP/Shinka people can stay on in London. This would make
phone attendance human for East Coast, and semi-human for West Coast, at
least for a good part of the meeting.

To confirm: there will be dial-in, and it will be advertized on this and
the main list.

Yours,

Alastair
