1. Roll call/agenda bashing
      Mike Kaiser
      Jeff Mischkinsky
      Bob Freund
      Sanjay Patil

      No updates to proposed agenda.

2. Future meeting schedule
      Deferred until end of discussion in the event that others
      are able to join later.

3. Status update on TCs
      Nothing compiled this time around.  Not a whole lot of
      difference since last meeting reported in October.

      Informally, Assembly, Policy, Bindings are pretty much done.
      Biggest hurdle is
      a)getting second implementation, and
      b)demonstrating to TC's that implementations do, in fact, work.

      No additional information regarding Fabric 3 status.

      AT A HIGH LEVEL:
      WS Bindings are pretty much done.
      JMS Binding are pretty much done (don't know of any other
         implementation at this time).
      JCA Binding - spec and TA's done.  No testcases, no implementations
         known .
      BPEL - Spec's and TA's done.  roughly 50% of testcases done.
      POJO CNI - specs and TA's done.  Tuscany supports.
      EJB - spec's pretty much done. Working draft of TA's in progress.
      Spring CNI - Spec's not done. No TA's No TC's.
      Java  CNI - Nothing has been done after initial SOA work.

      ACTION ITEM: 
          KAISER TO INVITE MIKE EDWARDS TO NEXT MEETING TO 
          DISCUSS WHERE FABRIC3 IS.

4. Compliant implementation plans
       Tuscany updates?
       Do we have an update on Fabric3 status?
      No updates.

5. Discussion of SCA Primer.
      Anil had asked me whether it was appropriate to work on this 
	(he volunteered).
      Anil volunteered to do this.  Though it could be published as 
      a document from any of the TC's, the suggestion from StC is that
      this be done through the Assembly TC and sent to all the TC's
      for comment/review/notice.

6. Any Other Business?
      SDO wants to stop working.  Not clear if they want to close it down or
      just go into hibernation. Should probably just shut down.  
   
      All got the Member Section Best Practices document. There were no real 
      issues or problems noted by the Steering Committee members. The Steering
      Committee didn't see anything in the document that would cause it to change
      the way it's working today.  
 
7. Future SC Agenda Topics?
      None noted.

8. Next Meeting

      Will reschedule meetings for the second Monday of each month 11-12pm PT
      If no agenda items identified within 2-3 days before the meeting, it will be
      cancelled. Until there is a break in the logjam of implementation testing
      there's not much reason for the SCA meetings to occur on a monthly basis,
      however, we will calendar them to make sure that the time is blocked monthly.

    Next scheduled meeting:  
    *  March 14th, 2011 11-Noon Pacific, 2-3pm Eastern.<--(Not likely to occur.)
    *  April 11th, 2011 11-Noon, Pacific, 2-3pm Eastern.  

     ACTION ITEM:
         KAISER TO UPDATE THE OASIS OPENSCA MEMBER SECTION STEERING COMMITTEE 
           CALENDAR TO REFLECT THAT THE StC WILL NOW MEET ON THE SECOND MONDAY
           OF EACH MONTH, 11-Noon PACIFIC TIME. 

12. Adjourn
