Subject: Face to Face meeting
Hi all, Thanks to everyone who attended the face to face meeting
today. It was a very useful meeting. My minutes are below. I will also add this
to Kavi. Thanks, Peter. Translation Web Services Face to Face meeting – October
24th LRC XI Conference – 1/ Present: Martin Smyllie, Paul Hardy, Tony Jewtushenko,
Kevin Bargary, Florian Sasche, Peter Reynolds 2/ Objectives Peter outlined the objectives of today which were to
get completion on the committee specification on decide on where we should go
to next. 3/ Ignite demonstration Kevin demonstrated the work he has done on the
implementation of the Translation Web services standard. This led to a
discussion on the specification. 4/ Committee specification The meeting reviewed the specification. Martin
suggested there were two areas we should revisit. These were how to do calls
such as the AssociateResource could be used in batch mode and how the
FileUpload could be used for adding more than one file. It was decided that we amend the calls in the reference
files section of the specification so that they can deal with multiple files.
We will also add a field called description which can be used to identify what
the file is for. We will update the fileUpload call so that it can be
used to add multiple files and add an identifier for the file. The section retrieveFullResourceList will be changed
to section 6.5 as it is mistakenly called 6.4. Martin and Paul agreed to make the changes to the specification. Kevin and Peter will change the whitepaper and any
other documentation which needs to be changed. It was agreed that we need to
include more process flow diagrams in the whitepaper to provide more insight
into how the specification would be used. 5/ Release of committee specification We agreed that we would have the specification ready
by our next meeting on November 8th. If there are any issues we will
decide on them at this meeting and resolve at the meeting and through email. When
there are no issues we will put together a ballot to approve the draft and submit
it for peer review. We will also publish the support material on our
section of the OASIS web site. 6/ Promoting the standard/ Future direction of the TC. We had a good discussion on the future direction on
the TC. It was agreed that we would ideally like to see the TC grow following
the release of the specification. Tony and Peter both mentioned that they would
like to step down from their positions at some stage in the future. It was agreed that we would try to get Case Studies
which could be used to promote the specification. Companies that might be
interested in doing this include SDL, Lionbridge, Idiom and thebigword. We saw the way to attract new members was through
publishing and promoting the committee specification, whitepaper and case
studies. One issue which was seen as potentially important was integration with
CMS providers. It is possible that this could be done through the JSR170
standard. It was also suggested that it would be good to get the CMS providers
involved. Our options for the future are to grow the existing TC
by getting in new members or to join with a TC at OASIS dealing with localization
issues include XLIFF. 7/ IPR Policy Tony and Peter outlined the IPR policy at OASIS. There
will be a TC ballot on this in the near future.
