Three primary points of discussion

There are three primary points of discussion. 

1. Getting on with business.

This committee has stalled over the past month, and the blame rest
entirely with me. As such, I intend to fix it. This forum needs to
churn. We have a lot details to resolve over the next eight weeks. This
mailing list is where it will happen. 

2. Letting the world know what we are doing. 

The cat is out of the bag now. The InfoWorld article is out and the
official OASIS press release will follow sometime this week. We need to
provide the world some content. I have created a draft FAQ. Let me know
if you have any objections to it or anything to add. It should go out
right away. Let me know what else we can or should provide.

3. Resolve fundamentals

We have resolved to publish a set of requirements that are minimum set
necessary to make asynch work. The driving concept here is the needs for
(a) small, embedded wireless devices and (b) large telecom switching
infrastructure. This is a big switch from the origins of ASAP, which was
workflow. I think it is healthy to get such divergent perspective of
requirements. 

I ask the members to propose their thoughts on minimum requirements to
the list.
