4. Discuss issues

* Discuss draft FAQ
Item deffered pending input; related to action item Kavi #0001.

* Classification of how many things are WS-Calendar
Gershon Janssen: Suggestion to first read up on document WD02
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/ws-calendar/download.php/37135/WS-Calendar-1%200-spec-wd-02.pdf
Gershon Janssen: Item moved to next weeks agenda.

* OS timestamping / William Cox
Gershon Janssen: B: explains fundamental idea on OS timestamping
Gershon Janssen: 2 times are kept in OS: time of day in seconds from epoch (1970), subsecond time
Gershon Janssen: objects managing timestaps should have sync amongst each other
Gershon Janssen: format of timestamp should be clear to all objects using it
Gershon Janssen: timestamping at granularity level of seconds should be enough
Gershon Janssen: System 5 release 4 time standard should be used as Bill suggests
Gershon Janssen: Granularity of time we should be using should be related to granularity as defined in ISO80601; second
level seems sufficient.
Gershon Janssen: Two issues (1) How fine we describe and (2) in what domain the resolution is meaningfull
Gershon Janssen: Requirement we have is an assertion of accuracy required
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: there is an issue as not always there is a choice on format of time
Gershon Janssen: Bill: two items -- (1) how to format the time (2) Quality of Time data
Gershon Janssen: T: Difference between granularity and accuracy
Gershon Janssen: Quality of Time or time domain is an important aspect related to the spec
Gershon Janssen: T: Timestamp is a low level object in the spec
Gershon Janssen: T: maybe we can come up with a quality of timestamp description consisting out of 3 or 4 elements from
the discussion
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: quality of timestamp -- see OPC 3.0 spec for some interesting insights
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: timestamp type -- is there anything in the reference documentation from OASIS related to the
basic types which could be reused?
Toby Considine: Action: Benoit to provide references to OPC 3.0 specs on time
Toby Considine: WTC: Reliable Messaging as a source?
Gershon Janssen: Bill: doesn't think there is something, but maybe there is something in WS-Reliable Messaging area.
Toby Considine: GUID for the organizing entity?
Gershon Janssen: Sequence numbers could help with times not being completely synced;
Gershon Janssen: T: maybe source and sequence should be specified with a timestamp
Gershon Janssen: Items to address: resolution, accuracy, how to carry this information, sequencing within a particular
realm.
Gershon Janssen: Bill: research needed in timestamping area -- there might be things specified in other specs already
Gershon Janssen: T: this is one of the realms not fully specified in the iCalendar spec
Gershon Janssen: T: WS-Calendar will maybe different from iCalender on this item
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: we will not find something on fine grained time specification, but there is some on time
syncing -- resolution and accuracy on the clock should be included in time for e.g. devices
Gershon Janssen: T: we have a concept of interval and granularity on interval sets; is granularity in this dicussion the
same?
Gershon Janssen: Reminders in iCalendar are defined to remind in minutes, hours, week, etc. so the subject of interval
could maybe reuse the iCalendar elements on this
Gershon Janssen: T: We have a couple of perspective on the subject to timestamping -- can each of the proposers send
some paragraphs on there perspective to the list for dicussion during the next meeting?
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: will create a short outline on timestamping, data timestamping in OPC, etc.
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: is off next week and will not join the next meeting, but can send something in 1.5 week
Gershon Janssen: Action Item Benoit, due in 1.5 weeks for discussion in 2 weeks during the TC call


5. Any Other Business? 

Gershon Janssen: T: agenda items for next week -- read up on WD02; comments are most welcome
Gershon Janssen: T: look into documents in document section in Kavi
Gershon Janssen: T: look at links on EIS Alliance Use Case Version 2.0
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: for next weeks agenda: when exchanging information w/timestamping, requirement on source and
destination clock awareness for timestamping -- you otherwise never know where the time comes from.
Gershon Janssen: Benoit: maybe some short text about this in the spec in order to determine source of the timestamp
Gershon Janssen: T: other topic for future week: sequence and time expectations -- determine if this in in / out of
scope of WS-Calendar spec
