Subject: Re: [soa-eerp] I047: BSLA - Conformance Issues 1
Same response as to i045 and i046: As in my response to i045 and i-46, it's OK to close wthis with proposal 2. However, there remain issues on conformance that have not been addressed. After the current round of issues is cleaned up I'll re-examine to ensure that conformance is dealt with in accordance with OASIS procedures. bill -- William Cox Email: wtcox@CoxSoftwareArchitects.com Web: http://www.CoxSoftwareArchitects.com +1 862 485 3696 mobile +1 908 277 3460 fax eerp_sy@changfeng.org.cn wrote: 380-2200963248751470@M2W025.mail2web.com" type="cite">Same as Issue I045: Fixed item #1 and changed last paragraph to the following: "This specification defines a number of extensions; compliant services are NOT REQUIRED to implement those extensions defined in this specification. However, if a service implements an aspect of the specification, it MUST comply with the requirements specified (e.g. related "MUST" statements). If an implementation silently ignore unrecognized attributes where any attribute is allowed, or silently ignore unrecognized elements where any element is allowed, should be considered as interoperable implementation." There are no more SHOULD and MAY in the Conformance section, and no more "OPTIONAL messages". Item #2, 3 and 4 of this issue should be addressed by the above changes. It is proposed to close this issue after the changes.

The issues coordinators will notify the list when that has occurred. Protocol: bqos rating sla Artifact: spec Type: design Title: Conformance Issues 1 Description: This issue applies to BusinessQualityOfService-v1.0-spec-wd04.pdf BusinessRating-v1.0-spec-wd05.pdf BusinessServiceLevelAgreement-v1.0-spec-wd04.pdf Examples are from BQOS. See lines 427-448 This addresses overall issues for conformance that I believe are in all three specifications. Line numbers from BQOS. (1) Line 432 - which "table above"? (2) Many of the conformance clauses reference SHOULD and MAY statements. It is not clear what MUST be done to conform. (3) Another issue, Unrecognized Attributes and Extensibility, points out interoperability issues with the conformance and descriptions as provided. The choices should be conscious and clearly spelled out and justified. (4) The conformance section references "OPTIONAL messages" (line 446 and elsewhere). What is meant by "message"? And who does or does not "support" it? This reads as if it were copied from a protocol spec, not a vocabulary spec. Related issues: Unrecognized Attributes and Extensibility Proposed Resolution: (a) Make terminology consistent; if the inconsistency is correct, state reason in normative text. (b) Address interoperability concerns for multiple implementations, particularly ones that do not recognize the same sets of attributes. Explain in normative or non-normative text why the specified behavior is necessary or desirable for interoperation. (c) Justify choices made in Appendix B or other non-normative text. The range of choices must be described, as well as the rationale for the particular choices. (d) Correct wording referring to messages to "instances". Clarify who or what supports what behavior; see related issue on extensibility. bill cox -- *William Cox* Email: wtcox@CoxSoftwareArchitects.com <mailto:wtcox@CoxSoftwareArchitects.com> Web: http://www.CoxSoftwareArchitects.com +1 862 485 3696 mobile +1 908 277 3460 fax -------------------------------------------------------------------- myhosting.com - Premium Microsoft® Windows® and Linux web and application hosting - http://link.myhosting.com/myhosting --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this mail list, you must leave the OASIS TC that generates this mail.
