Minutes

- Update on London Face 2 Face accomplishments
	- version v0.92 of Message Service specification has been
	published to the list (available on the "private" web page)
	represents the output of the face2face meeting
	- we have much more work to accomplish before Vancouver
	when the team MUST submit the "final" draft to QR for
	the final ebXML-wide review prior to voting in April

- Rik gave a heads up on the press release that OASIS plans on
publishing

- Ralph - process issue - comments outstanding are primarily
editorial in nature. Chris proposed that the team have a few
days to review the editorial comments proposed and vote on the
block during each weeks call. Rik wants Ralph to be responsible
for the process. 

Agreed process leading to Vancouver for editorial changes:
	- team to send comments to the list following the guidelines
	that have been established:
		- line number from v0.92 draft WITHOUT changes highlighted
		- classification as to nature of comment:
			editorial
			minor technical
			major technical
	- Chris to collate all of the *editorial* comments sent to 
	the list before 5 pm EST each Tuesday into a single email
	that will be sent out for the team to review prior to
	each week's conference call (Thursday)
	- team to *briefly* discuss the block of changes listed in Chris's
	weekly summary email. Any items that meet with disagreement
	(e.g. is not editorial or the change is inappropriate, etc.) will
	be briefly discussed and/or omitted from consideration in the
	vote. Omitted items MAY be resubmitted for consideration the
	following week.
	- team votes on the acceptance of the block of changes 
	- Ralph and other members of editorial team will incorporate
	the changes into the draft

This process begins with next week's call.

- AIAG thinks that the spec is too complicated and confusing
especially as regards reliable messaging, synchronous messaging
and security.

- We formed two sub-teams:
	Reliable Messaging/Multi-Hop - Chris will lead
	Synchronous Messaging - Prasad will lead

These teams are chartered to work towards formal proposals for
the specification that will be considered and approved during 
the Vancouver Meeting. Each lead is responsible for getting their
respective teams engaged and delivering something for the TR&P
team to consider before the Vancouver meeting.

- Rik reviewed the proposed OASIS press release announcing the
availability of the version 1.0 Message Service specificaton.
All felt that this press release is at best premature and that
it should be squashed. Rik will inform the Steering Committee and
OASIS.

- Some discussion as to the remaining schedule and its agressive
nature was held.
