6. Hal to propose something for section 7 of spec by Friday (7/12) to Bill who is authoring section 7 (identifiers)

No work not done yet. Bill could use help. Suggest set aside couple hours at F2F.

Not done yet.

Carlisle not on call

9. Anne to begin work on Conformance Test Cases

In progress. Goal is by F2F

10. All to review Issues List 8 and send resolution of closed issues not reflected in list to Ken.

No information received. May be a topic for the F2F to close these.

 

 

Schema subcommittee update

Anne sent out notes about issues discussed and resolved. Maintaining list of subcommittee issues.

Now two decision types. Have not decided if target in rule will be optional or not. Optional is optimization if rules in policy all have same target.

Tim - Schema does show it as optional.

Anne - okay will mark it as closed at optional

Discussed various other issues. See Anne's notes from last two subcommittee meetings for full list.

Set operators, nameform matches, and two numeric types added to the schema.

Still working on target matching and schema for it.

Monday - multiple decisions should be as if separate evaluation of policy for each element in resource hierarchy.

 

Tim - put out 15i of schema and v15 of spec and then have next call on Monday. There will be no Friday call. Also suggest make a goal of having conceptual issues settled by F2F and focus on tuning the text.

Hal - Have two more Mondays before F2F.

 

Some discussion as to whether F2F is two or three days. It is three days. 7/30 - 8/1. Don needs to confirm the room for 7/30 and let the committee know.
