> 5. Reports -- any sub-committees that wish to report
>

- Erick Herring, Primer SC
    - have just begun work on primer, and are starting 
      separate mailing list
    - has pushed out strawman, and is awaiting comments
    - determining form of work
- Rob Philpott, Doc Naming
    - responses on list favor "Web Services Security: SOAP Message
      Security"
    - one objection to its length, favor use of "core"
    - lacks qualification
    - Hal: suggests posing small number of options, and do email vote
    - [ACTION] RobP to gather short list of options and post for email
      vote

> 
> 6. Progress report from the editors
>

- Tony Nadalin, core doc
    - updated doc posted this morning
    - have taken comments from mail list that match issues list and
      updated docs
    - some comments haven't been incorporated because they need more
      clarification
    - will reply to those to try to get all worked in
- Ron Monzillo, SAML bindings doc
    - will post update before next call
    - Kelvin: why even that long?
    - Ron: impact of other work
    - hasn't seen many comments posted for this, most seem to be on
      core
    - Kelvin: wants to have docs to digest well before F2F
- Phillip Hallam-Baker, Kerberos/X509/XrML bindings
    - will try to get a draft out by Friday 
- Hal: concerning Tony's doc, does this reflect editors getting 
  together as discussed previously?
    - Tony: no, couldn't get everyone together
    - they will get together once
- Chris Kaler: need someone to Shepherd the PKCS7 and PKIPath token
  profiles
    - Phil Griffin: volunteers to help with PKCS7

> 
> 7. Discussion of the documents
>

- Tim Moses: why aren't we using XMLSchema?
    - Chris: we are
    - Tim: (example) in core, sec 6, line 445, this is not XMLSchema
    - Chris: this is illustrative view, and a separate schema doc
      gives explicit XML
    - Tim: why not use XMLSchema in core?
    - Chris: simplicity of reading
    - several supporting comments of simpler representation
    - Prateek: supports Tim's desire for exactness
    - is there any single doc that holds the complete schema?
    - apparently not yet
    - Chris: why cut and paste, rather than use simplified examples?
    - PhilG: has had bad experiences in past standards efforts keeping
      two such docs in synch
    - PhillHB: has some tools to synchronize between normative doc and
      schema doc
    - Jeff: supports usefulness of having exact XMLSchema in core
    - web site and docs lack normative reference to schema doc
    - Chris: prefers to wait to end, after voting on candidate doc set,
      to copy schema fragments
    - Hal: even simplified examples have a synch problem
    - Jeff: examples don't necessarily have to "validate"
    - RobP: finds SAML doc more comprehensive and easier to understand,
      compared to current WSS docs
    - Tim: simplified form lacks optionality, cardinality, etc
    - Conner: feels that having both forms is valuable
    - John S: agrees, and reiterates need to post schema
    - [ACTION] Kelvin to post schema file
    - Hal: is the notation with slashes and '@' symbols is unfamiliar,
      is it documented somewhere?
    - its basically XPath
    - suggestion to include reference to XPath to explain the notation
    - RobP: suggests that anyone that has an alternative notation 
      should pose it to the list
    - Tim: just surprised that any other notation is needed, but will
      abide by majority feeling
    - Chris: treat this as open issue and take it to the list

> 
> 8. Review and status of actions and issues
>

- John S: going thru list as sent late yesterday, top to bottom
  < http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/wss/200210/msg00104.html >
    - 1-2 closed
    - 3
        - Hal: understood that this issue was being subsumed by Ron's 
          doc changes
        - Ron: sent summary/proposal to list, but got no responses
          < http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/wss/
            200210/msg00052.html >
        - related issues were 19 & 23
        - John: how should we proceed on 3, 4 & 5?
        - the editors will move forward on this, and clarify these
    - 9, was AI for use case authors
        - [ACTION] Erick Herring to follow up and make determination
    - 10-13 postponed/closed
    - 14
        - still open
        - Ron will propose change before next meeting
    - 15
        - Tony put in 1 reference, needs another
        - still open
    - 16-18 closed
    - 19
        - related to issue 3
        - should be combined with issue 23
        - Ron has posted note on this, and needs comments
          < http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/wss/
            200209/msg00095.html > (item 11)
        - [ACTION] Ron to work with Tony to get incorporated in doc
        - PhilG: might be an area where biometrics should be noted
        - [ACTION] PhilG to post to list concerning biometrics, and 
          work with Ron
    - 20
        - Tony: has attempted to clarify
        - John: will note as pending fix, and will close next time
    - 21-22
        - Ron: 2, 21, & 22 are related
        - suggests that tokens don't necessarily imply a key, so the 
          doc isn't generic enough
        - either this isn't an issue, or we clarify that tokens can 
          carry anything, not just keys
        - closing this item
        - [ACTION] editors to clarify on 22
    - 23
        - grouped with 19
    - 24-25
        - Ron: should be grouped with 25
        - 25 is a question about the presence of a use model
        - Tony: can we deem this out of scope and say that all 
          signatures belong in header?
        - Ron: may be reasonable
        - after much discussion, decide to move to list
    - 26
        - has been moved to 'pending', will be closed next call
    - 27
        - [ACTION] editors to clarify doc
    - 28
        - [ACTION] Ron will make change in rev to bindings
        - pending for review at next call
    - 29
        - Ron: talked this through with Prateek & Jeff, and doesn't
          feel we need to take time on this today
        - not sure if this is an issue or not
        - Prateek: proposes we take this to list
        - [ACTION] Prateek to post to list on this issue
    - 30
        - previously discussed today (simplified examples in normative
          doc rather than actual XMLSchema fragments)
        - still open
        - will be discussed on list
        - [ACTION] JohnS to update name of this issue to reflect
          direction of this discussion
    - 31
        - Consensus around using an OASIS namespace
        - [ACTION] chairs to derive an appropriate OASIS namespace
        - [ACTION] editors to change namespace
    - 32
        - Tony: has clarified freshness issue in text, but not the 
          SHA-1 issue
        - Tim; e.g., in Europe, people want to use RIPEMD
        - [ACTION] Tony to clarify
        - marking issue as pending
    - 33
        - Tony: has attempted to clarify Tim's main points
        - Tim will review latest draft
        - marking this as pending
        - Tony: looking for other examples for where timestamp is more
          than just time
        - Tim: timestamp is too precise, as it certifies the existence
          of the message at that instant
        - just thinks element should be named "time" rather than
          "timestamp"
        - [ACTION] John will add timestamp discussion as new issue to 
          list
    - 34
        - will move to list
    - out of time to complete issues list
- Tony: doc edits will get messy with change bars
    - suggestion to accept changes in doc after posting to list,
      so that each posting is a delta from the previous posting

> 
> 9. Any other business
>

- Schedule of next call
    - Chris: doesn't think that can be decided on this call
    - if we wait three weeks for next call to get back on old sched,
      that will step on one of the proposed F2F dates
    - [ACTION] Chris will post options for next call on list tomorrow
- Chris: volunteer for ebXML liaison?
    - Zahid volunteers
