RE: [ws-tx-editors] Fw: Editors instructions
Didn’t the TC already agree to a
convention in relation to issue 15?  From the minutes at [1] I thought we
agreed to accept my proposal referenced in the minutes:

 

---------------------------------------

Excerpt from the minutes:

---------------------------------------

 

Ian: Colleen's proposal is to keep the hyphen.  It is at http://www.oasis-open.org/archives/ws-tx/200602/msg00007.html

 

Eric: The proposal is to keep the hyphen.

Do we have consensus?  Is there any objection to keeping the
hyphen?

 

Ram Jeyaraman:  There are a couple of documents which need
reflect the resolution of this issue.

 

Colleen: We can follow what other committees like RX are doing. 
There is a link to what they are doing, in my proposal.

 

Ian: We also need to supply values for the yyyy/mm in the
namespace.  We should use 2006/03, based on the date we expect the CD or CDs to
be approved.  It is not a critical date; we just need to establish it.

 

Ian: Move to adopt the versioning policy including the WS-RX
policy.

Ram: Second.

 

Monica: Can someone explain the WS-RX model for versioning? 

 

Ian: The pointer is http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-rx/issues/ReliableMessagingIssues.xml#i088

 

Ram: The policy states that the namespace will not change
arbitrarily.  It will change only when a published CD or specification results
in a non-backwardly compatible namespace, and defines the changes which are
considered not to be backwardly compatible.

 

Alastair: It should say either CD or specification changes.

Eric: Yes, that is included.

 

Martin: I would like to feed our decision back to the ASIS
review.

ACTION: Chairs to inform
ASIS that we are not following the guideline with respect to hyphens.

 

Eric: Any objections to passing the proposal, including the
WS-RX policy?

No objections noted.

Proposal for resolution of issue 15 has passed.

---------------------------------------

 

 

Thanks,

Colleen

I opt for using #1 (as per Ian's suggestion &
using the 2006/03 date) ... just out of curiosity why is it that that the
namespace slightly different between the two ... i.e. #1 is fine with just
"wscoor" where #2 is "wstx-wscoor" (where everthing
prepending that portion is the same)

With regard to cross-references between the specs
(e.g a [WSCOOR] ref in

WS-AT) there are 2 choices:

1. http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wscoor/2006/03,
which will resolve to a

RDDL doc

2. http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wstx-wscoor-1.1-spec-wd-03.pdf which

will resolve to the specification document itself

#1 above is fairly common practice and more
consistent with the existing

references.

Thanks both.

I'll update the reference to WSCOOR too.

I had opted for a date of 2006/03 per Ian's
recommendation on last week's

telecon:

"We also need to supply values for the
yyyy/mm in the namespace.  We

should use 2006/03, based on the date we expect
the CD or CDs to be

approved." -

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/ws-tx/download.php/16930/WS-TX_Minutes_2006_02_23.htm

So, just for the sake of clarity, that makes the
three namespaces:

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wscoor/2006/03

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsat/2006/03

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wsba/2006/03

Andrew,

I had intended to do a global change (including

additional lines that seem to have been missed in

Max, Tom

In the interests of consistency how far do you
plan to go with the changes

for WS-Coor and WS-BA for issue 15?

I intend to update AT to describe coor with a
namespace of

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wscoor/2006/03.
At the moment I don't

intend to update the non-normative WSCOOR
reference to refer to the new

specification; changing the list of authors and
publication date etc. Does

this seem reasonable -  I don't feel strongly
about this, just that it

would be good for all 3 specs to be updated
similarly.

Thanks,

Andy

One further thing.

As a general rule it would help the TC if each WD
had cumulative

change-tracking since the last approved draft (CD
or PR). We have no

approved draft yet; the base draft with respect to
which changes should be

tracked prior to our first CDs is the first drafts
that used the OASIS

templates. In this case, please just do your best;
if you haven't been

tracking changes in this way so far then just
start doing so from now.

Hello Editors,

Per the discussion on the telecon last week,
please can you get updated

drafts to the TC by EOD Tues 7 March.

Please use the following conventions to ensure
consistency:

On the front page of each spec, please ensure you
use the appropriate "doc

identifier", "location" and
"Technical committee" name and correct form of

statustext.

1. Doc identifier value (this value should be on
the line following

"Document Identifier" and in the page
footer)

wstx-wscoor-1.1-spec-wd-03

wstx-wsat-1.1-spec-wd-03

wstx-wsba-1.1-spec-wd-03

2. Location value:

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wstx-wscoor-1.1-spec-wd-03.pdf

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wstx-wsat-1.1-spec-wd-03.pdf

http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-tx/wstx-wsba-1.1-spec-wd-03.pdf

3. Technical committee

OASIS WS-TX TC

(Note upper case WS-TX)

4. Status.

The first line of the status section should state:

This document is published by the WS-TX TC as a
?working draft".

Please use a file name that is the doc identifier
with a ".doc" file

extension e.g wstx-wsba-1.1-spec-wd-03.doc

We don't need to generate new PDFs yet. We will
produce PDFs whenever the

TC adopts a new CD.

The issues that we want to incorporate in these
drafts are listed below by

spec.

WS-Coordination

Issues: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 15, 17, (18-21)

WS-AtomicTransaction

Issues: 15, 17

WS-BusinessActivity

Issues: 7, 15, 17,

Regards,

Ian
