RE: [obix] Groups - Post Symposium oBIX Meeting added

["Ronald Zimmer" <zimmer@caba.org>]

Toby... I was at The Cable Show and the K/BIS last week and unable to participate. As we have moved the CABA support for oBIX under the CABA Intelligent & Integrated Buildings Council...you may be aware that the IIBC will meet at 9 AM on May 25 as part of BuilConn 2007 in Chicago. Would Paul, you or someone be able to report on oBIX at this meeting?

Let Tom Lohner, IIBC Chair and myself know if this is possible. Because the meeting is only 90 minutes long...to be followed by a 2 hour IB Town Hall....we may only have approx 10 minutes for an update report and any call to action for the industry.

Thanks,
Ron

Next Version Features

(tc) Upgraded Contracts. oBIX currently allows client to create contract, and thereafter refer to that contact when requesting updates. If an oBIX server can maintain a library of pre-defined contracts, then these could be the basis for meeting the immeditate needs of some members while providing for some of the liason issues above. I imagine that a client can invoke a named contract for a contract period. The reply of the oBIX server (Contract issued, here's the ID) and all future communications are identical to a contract invoked by other means.

Possible uses:
- Could Named Contracts provide a standards-based way to perform the proprietary actions some mebemrs complain that oBIX does not support?
- EmergencyManagementSeverWeather Contract. Set by building owner/intgrator, aproved by insurance company, invoked by National Weather Service
- Beginning of type libraries for oBIX
