Minutes:
1.	Role call

Quorum.

2.	Review draft core spec revision The annotated draft we discussed is:
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/search-ws/download.php/26816/sws-core-1-15.doc
Decisions:
-	We will in general and where practical use the term item rather than record in the core spec. Thus for example, Maximum Number of Items rather than Maximum number of Records.  Profiles are free to change parameter names, so for example SRU 1.2 can continue to refer to records and can keep its parameter names the same. Response Format will become Response Type, e.g. 'text/html',  'application/xhtml+xml', application/xml, application/atom+xml , application/x-sru.
-	For the parameter Query, the abstract  parameter name will be query rather than searchTerms.
-	Start Record will become Start Position.
-	Maximum Number of Records becomes Maximum number of Items.
-	Record Packing parameter eliminated. 
-	Item Type replaces Record Schema. e.g. string, jpeg, dc, iso2709. It is a value from the list provided by the server.
-	Result Set Time to Live parameter eliminated. 
-	Sort Order parameter added.

So the request parameters at this point are:
-	Response Type
-	Query 
-	Start Position
-	Maximum Number of Items 
-	Item Type
-	Sort Order

The response parameters:
-	Number of Items
-	Result Set Identifier
-	Items
-	Next Position
-	Diagnostics
-	Echoed Request


3.	 Other core functions. e.g. Facets
Jan will write up something about facets.  It is not clear that it should be a core function, perhaps it will be for SRU 2.0.


4.	 SRU 1.2
Ray will continue as editor for SRU 1.2

5.	 SRU 2.0
Rob will take the lead on SRU 2.0.

6.	 openSearch
It is unclear whether Farrukh will remain a member of the committee; he had volunteered as editor of the openSearch binding.  If he does not remain a member, Ray will take on that responsibility, unless someone else volunteers. 

7.	 ATOM
Similarly Farrukh had volunteered as editor of the ATOM binding. It isnt entirely clear if an ATOM binding is necessary, or if it is, how urgently. Matthew would be the appropriate member to do this if Farrukh doesnt remain on the committee.  Matthew is not on the call. Ray will email him about this. 

8.	 Description language
Ashley and Ralph will collaborate on this. 

9.	 Next steps
We would like to have a Committee Draft of the Core Spec and SRU 1.2 Profile within two months, i.e. by late March. 

10.	 Other.
Ralph is interested in seeing if the Solar Flare community might be interested in our work. Ralph will contact them.

11.	Next Meeting
January 31.
