Mike,
Regarding the presentation format, I think
we should take into consideration the fact that the people who are showing up
for the OASIS meeting are very likely to be already familiar with the basic
concepts of SCA. As such, I think it would be a good idea for each topic
to have 3 pieces:
-
Description of the technology as of 1.0 (jumping as quickly into details as
possible)
-
Description of known problems that have not yet been solved
-
Significant time for handling questions and comments
I would also consider keeping the overview
section at the beginning very short – basically just clarifying the goals
and non-goals of SCA as a whole.
BTW, I am also available for running
presentations on just about any topic other than C++.
Michael

Subject: Re: Organizing the Open
Education Session for Day 1 of the OASIS SCA F2F Meeting in September,
Hi Mike,
I'd be happy to help prepare material for the Java and
Assembly sections. I'd be happy to help present on the Java parts and do demos
for either Java and/or Assembly.

Folks,
As
part of the OASIS SCA F2F meeting planned for Palo Alto in the week beginning 17th
September,
Day
1 is planned to be an SCA education session, open to all.
I've
agreed to help coordinate the education session and this note aims to start the
process of building
an
agenda for the education session and it is also a request for help from those
folks who are experts
in
one or more parts of SCA. We need to share out both the preparation of
material and the presentation
of
material on the day.
Here
are my initial thoughts - comments and suggestions welcome, of course
1) Schedule for the day
I
suggest 09:00 - 12:00 and 13:00 - 16:00 as the times for the education session.
This
allows time for lunch and time at the end for discussions between attendees and
presenters.
2) Topic areas
-
SCA Overview (a general overview touching on everything that follows....)
-
SCA Assembly model
-
SCA Java (to include Spring and JEE)
-
SCA BPEL
-
SCA Policy Framework (to include Security, Reliable Messaging and Transactions)
-
SCA Bindings (to include Web services, JMS, JCA)
-
SCA C++
-
SCA Work in Progress (?) to include COBOL, C, Pub/Sub,
I
think that something like this ordering would be a good idea.
I'm looking for volunteers!
a)
to prepare the materials
b)
to give the presentations - I suggest no more than 2 people per topic
3) Format
I
suggest that the core of the material will be slide presentations.
If
we can fit them in, it would be nice to have some live demos of material
closely related to the slides,
but
that will also depend on whether we can fit them into the schedule.
The
presentations will be posted onto the OASIS OpenCSA website after the session.
