Discussion

[See slides at 
http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/wsrp-wsia/200209/msg00108.html]

1. Need to propose replacement for properties section of joint spec.

 Goal is to get this fleshed out in time for discussion on Oct 10 call.

2. Review open issues

- user context: what parts are relevant (e.g., role information).  May need to 
further factor this.
- setEntityProperties now returns interaction response (like performInteraction
())
- formatting of property lists
 
3. Drill down into metadata

- need to factor entity handles back in again
- schema 
	- is schema processing required? yes
	- should entities have embedded schemata or full-blown wsdl?  schema 
for 1.0
	- do we need to include the <schema> subelement at all?  is there 
another standard way to attach a schema with a doc?
	- wsdl recommends using subelements rather than attributes, our 
(xforms) notation uses a "type" attribute on <bind>

4. Drill down into get/set

- need to factor entity handles back in again
- property "name" is an attribute (vs. subelement)...

5. Open questions

- no lifecycle restrictions
- setEntityProperties is atomic (all succeed or fail together)
- setEntityProperties does not return list of changed properties
- need to think about editing of multi-valued properties
- need to think about how to reset property to default value
