Subject: RE: [sca-assembly] RECOMMENDATION: Stand up new SC
|
Jeff, I think you were away when we
had a discussion on this. The TC did agree not to hold up the current sca1.1
progress, and to that end we agreed that in the regular Tuesday meetings there
will be no discussion of eventing/issue-80 for the time being. We did talk
about forming an SC, but people pointed out that it really is the same people that
need to attend , and concerns were expressed about resources. That’s how
we ended up with the current compromise of an extra session on Wednesday every
two weeks. I’m inclined to let this
play out for a month or so and then assess whether it is working or not. Cheers, Martin. From: Estefan, Jeff A (3100)
[mailto:jeffrey.a.estefan@jpl.nasa.gov] Mike and Martin, Given the growing discussion thread
surrounding issue ASSEMBLY 80 on creating an event processing model for SCA,
and the more recent issues regarding adding SCA support for pub/sub in general,
may I recommend that you stand up a new Subcommittee (SC) under the auspices of
the SCA-Assembly TC. This is very easy to do under the OASIS
framework. It has the advantage of being able to appoint an SC chair (or
co-chairs), create a separate Kavi space for capturing SC artifacts, meeting
announcements, etc., and, perhaps most importantly, any recommended technical
products emerging from the SC must still pass a full vote of the parent TC; in
this case, the SCA-Assembly TC. Anish, Martin, and others have done an
outstanding job in crafting candidate solutions to address issue ASSEMBLY 80;
however, there is clearly a lot of work still to do and dissension still
remains on a solution set. In other words, a final solution that we can
all live with does not appear imminent; hence, the need to stand up a separate
SC. Just a suggestion. Now, even if we were to standup a new SC,
my personal feeling is that every effort should be made to get the current
(non-eventing) SCA-Assembly spec ratified as an OASIS standard at the
very earliest possible date. It is only when these specs become formal
industry standards that we will be able to enforce its conformance criteria
with the ultimate goal of full interoperability of the solutions that implement
these specs. Note that I will be on travel next week and
unable to attend both the TC meeting on Tue and supporting eventing discussion
on Wed so if this issue comes up, I won’t be available to address any
questions regarding standing up an SC. Nevertheless, it’s very easy
to do and our friends from the OASIS staff can assist us. We’ve
done it readily on other TCs I serve. Regards… - Jeff E. |
