Proposal for exit cirteria for SCA Bindings TC specifications

[Simon Holdsworth <simon_holdsworth@uk.ibm.com>]

Folks, 

Following the agreement of the Assembly
TC on wording for their exit criteria, here is my proposal for the exit
criteria for the Bindings TC specifications.  JMS is straightforward;
for web services I think we have to have 3 separate statements about implementations
for the SCA runtine, WSCB Service and WSCB Client as these are independent
conformance targets.  Note that based on the Assembly exit criteria,
these apply to specification documents, not the TC as a whole.  One
further question I had is whether we need to say anything about JCA or
HTTP bindings, to clarify that these are out of scope for 1.1?   I
suppose in theory the TC could decide to release a 1.1 version of these
bindings at a later date.

Here's the proposed text:

The Concrete Exit Criteria for the SCA
JMS Binding V1.1 specification are that there shall be at least 2 independent
SCA runtimes each of which are compliant with all normative portions of
the specification as described in Section 8.2 of the SCA JMS Binding V1.1
specification.

The Concrete Exit Criteria for the SCA
Web Service Binding V1.1 specification are that there shall be all of the
following:

• at least 2 independent SCA runtimes each of which are compliant with all normative portions of the specification that apply to SCA runtimes as described in Section 6.4 of the SCA Web Service Binding V1.1 specification;
• at least 2 independent runtimes each of which are compliant with all normative portions of the specification that apply to a Web Service Callback Service as described in Section 6.2 of the SCA Web Service Binding V1.1 specification;
• at least 2 independent runtimes each of which are compliant with all normative portions of the specification that apply to a Web Service Callback Client as described in Section 6.3 of the SCA Web Service Binding V1.1 specification.

Here I have used the phrase "that
apply to" to mean "that have as their conformance target",
I don't mind either wording.
