Subject: RE: Comments about workflow //Re:RE: [tosca] Re: Try to submit a comment//Re:[tosca] Your Public Review for TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML V1.1 CSPRD02 has been announced
Thank you for adding this discussion as JIRA issue TOSCA-318. FYI, Luc Boutier made a tremendous contribution to the workflow aspects of Simple Profile in YAML
v1.1, so you may find his opinion to be helpful. That said; I encourage interested TC members to voice their opinions as comments to this issue.
Regards, Paul

Hi Paul and Chet, Many thanks for the useful information and guidelines. So I guess I can add my two cents here. I notice that the draft of "TOSCA Simple Profile in YAML Version 1.1" is trying to define a new workflow DSL inside TOSCA instead of using existing standards such as BPMN/BPEL which is recommended in the Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud
Applications Version 1.0[1]. Below is the description of plan(workflow) in the V1.0 Spec: planLanguage: This attribute denotes the process modeling language (or metamodel) used to specify the plan. For example, “http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/20100524/MODEL”
would specify that BPMN 2.0 has been used to model the plan. TOSCA does not specify a separate metamodel for defining plans. Instead, it is assumed that a process modelling language (a.k.a. metamodel) like BPEL [BPEL 2.0] or BPMN [BPMN 2.0] is used to define plans. The specification favours
the use of BPMN for modelling plans. Since many open source and property orchestration implementation have already adopted TOSCA and used the BPMN/BPEL as the process modelling language, this incompatible change may force them to refactor their implementation to adapt to the new Spec, wich
will definitely cost a lot of time and work. As far as I know, OPEN-O[2], Open-TOSCA[3] and some of the internal projects of ZTE will encounter this problem. So I'm wondering could we keep standard modelling language, in particular, such as BPMN and BPEL, as an option in the next version of TOSCA Spec? What do you think? [1]

Chet is correct that TC Members can always post to our mailing list,
and also create issues in our issue tracking system, based on JIRA. Additionally, I will send you an orientation email shortly, which will explain our organizations and the other ways that you can get involved. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me or my esteemed co-chair, John Crandall,

On Behalf Of Chet Ensign Hello Huabing, Welcome to OASIS and the TOSCA TC! I am delighted to read about open-o. I love to see how projects are finding value in the spec. To answer your question, yes - as a member of the TC, you should send your comments to the main TOSCA TC mailing list. The tosca-comment@ mailing list is for use by those who are
outside the TC. Your comments on the spec should be tracked and addressed just the same as any coming to the comment@ mailing list. Please let me know how I can help as you engage with the work here. Best regards, /chet On Wed, Feb 15, 2017 at 11:51 PM,
