Jeff - excellent
feedback.
On the basis that it meets our
requirements, this makes perfect sense.
Just yesterday in a conversation with a META analyst
familiar with DSML, I phrased our effort as being “DSML for any resource
type”.
Comments?

F2F#1 Straw-man Agenda
Although I will not be able to attend the F2F in Austin, I would like to make a
proposal in refence to the "Core Protocol - Model Overview" section
of the agenda.
I would like to propose that instead of creating
another XML protocol for provisioning, that the SPML standard be based on the
DSML V2 standard. I am suggesting that we use DSML V2 as the SPML protocol and
define a set of schemas that define the provisioning model.
I believe that defining a Provisioning Model is going
to be the most difficult task for this group, so by using a predefine protocol,
we would be that must closer to a standard. So far I have not seen anything in
the submitted use cases that could not be accomodated with DSML V2 as the
protocol.
I apologize for making this proposal without being
able to attend the F2F and discuss it. But I feel that it is important to put
this forward if the group is going to be talking about the core protocol.

Below is a straw-man
agenda for next weeks meeting.The general objective is to discuss develop and
produce a body of technical requirements suitable to begin the analysis and
development of the core protocol. The general tone of the meeting is that
of a guided open discussion.The intention is to produce a large list of
technical requirements, issues and comments for presentation back to the list
and committee members.
I have arranged for
teleconference facilities in the room.There will also be IP available for everyone
that needs it.Where applicable we can arrange Webex web conferencing for any
remote members that want to connect and see any slides that might be available
- I intend to have a summary presentation of the use cases and the Core
Protocol Model overview – these would be suitable for
“broadcast”.
If you are not
attending but would like to dial-in for any part of the agenda please let me
know in advance. Also, regardless of attendance, do feel free to suggest
changes/amendments/additions – I’m doing the agenda because you are
not ;-)
