The next call of the WS BPEL TC will

Number: 888-711-4576 USA Toll Number: +1-484-630-9377,  LEADER:  DIANE
JORDAN PASSCODE: WS BPEL TECHNICAL COMMITTEE.   The passcode and the
leader's name will be required to join the call.  
Here is the proposed agenda: 
- Nomination/volunteers to take minutes for this call   
- Roll call/determine quorum 
- Review/accept minutes from  previous calls - this will be deferred
as minutes have not been made available in time for review before the meeting.
- Review agenda
- New call procedure for 2005
We'll discuss new arrangements for the
BPEL TC calls - this will be summarized in an email to the group as well
to make sure everyone knows of the changes.  
- F2F meeting results.  
I posted email to the group with summary
of results from Dec 14 and 15.  On Dec 16, we discussed a few important
schedule related items of general interest:       
1.Tthe next f2f meeting will be Mar.
8-10.  Based on offers to host, it will be held in Germany with the
city to be specified shortly.  We will post a web ballot to monitor
attendance plans.  
2. The TC agreed we will aim for a committee
draft to be approved by June 30, 2005.   
3. April 1 was set as the date final
proposals to vote for all issues.   Any issue that does not have a
proposal by that date will be closed unless there is an objection.  If
there is an objection, we will have a vote and the issue will be closed
unless a super majority agree it still needs to be fixed in which case
it will be left open.  This leaves ambiguous the disposition of issues
opened after April 1 and those whose proposals are rejected.  These
will be handled on a case by case basis.  
In addition on the 16th, we held a review
of all open issues that were not previously covered in the meeting.  Issue
26 was closed with no change, several interdependencies were noted for
other issues and some follow ups will be sent to individuals.  More
detailed notes on this discussion will be in the minutes.
