Subject: Re: [wsrm] Spec updated
Tom, I agree it is a high priority for members of this TC to review updated Requirements and Specifications documents. However, one weekend (in the case of the new Specification) is insufficient time. I request that we postpone discussion of the new Specification for at least one week. Since I have not seen an updated Requirements document, I am not sure when that discussion should be scheduled. We should stop using proprietary document formats for our discussions immediately. While Iwasa and Szabolcs (or Tom) have provided PDF versions of their documents, neither are useful for future edits and neither renders consistently with the Word documents. I, for one, do not have Word on any machine and have had problems using various "Word-compatible" editors with various TC documents. A conversion to DocBook (an OASIS Standard), OpenOffice (a submission to an OASIS TC) or (failing that) HTML at this time would be very worthwhile. No, this conversion is not something I can do since I seem to have problems rendering the input documents. I may have better luck once I install the StarOffice 6.1 Beta... Separately, the version of the Requirements document on our web site [1] has not been updated since the 13th of June. Is this document still current? This reminds me: We should avoid using the email archives as a document repository. Iwasa or Tom, please update the Editor's Drafts section of our TC Documents page to include non-proprietary version of this material. In the future, I would suggest updating the site rather than forwarding large emails to the entire list. The web copy of the specification [2] has not changed since the original submission. Finally, Iwasa, which issues are addressed through the changes you have made to the specification? Which changes are editorial or otherwise unrelated to existing issues? thanx, doug [1] http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wsrm/download.php/2677/Web_Service_Reliability_Requirements.pdf [2] http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wsrm/download.php/1461/WS-ReliabilityV1.0Public.zip On 11-Jul-03 07:40, Tom Rutt wrote: > iwasa wrote: > >> Attached are updated spec, spec with update history, and >> word doc to manage these updates. >> I will continue to update for remaining items, but post the current >> docs now anyway. >> >> Thanks, >> Iwasa >> > We can discuss this on the call on tuesday in the agenda slot for > Schedule of the Specification > progression. > > Thanks a lot Iwasa. > > Everyone should read this and put any comments on the list for discussion. > > The same goes for the requirements document,. > > Tom Rutt > WSRM Chair > >> >> >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ >> >> You may leave a Technical Committee at any time by visiting >> http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/wsrm/members/leave_workgroup.php >> >> > >
