Re: [wss] TC for Policy in support of WSS and other activities

[ronald monzillo <ronald.monzillo@sun.com>]

This is a follow up to our earlier message in which SUN offered to host
an open meeting to define a charter for an OASIS TC. We have decided to
reschedule this meeting, especially to accommodate a conflict with the
UDDI F2F.

We polled those who responded to the original invitation, and decided to
reschedule the meeting for Friday, Feb. 21, at the SUN Burlington MA.
campus. This message details the meeting logistics including directions
to the Sun campus, nearby accommodations, and the time of the meeting. A
detailed meeting agenda will be mailed out separately. If you have items 
or suggestions for the agenda, please send them along.

We request that those who have not yet confirmed their intent to attend
please do so, especially so that we can reserve sufficient space. We
also encourage you to share this invitation with others who you feel may
be interested. We will provide a call in number for those wish to
participate by telephone.

The meeting will begin at 8:30 AM., and end at about 5:00 P.M. EST.

This meeting will focus on the characterization of the policy related
functionality required to support the interoperable use of mechanisms,
including but not limited to, the SOAP message security mechanisms being
defined by the Web Services Security TC. The purpose of the meeting will
be to capture these requirements in proposed charters for one or more
TCs that will serve the industry by providing solutions to these
important problems.
