RE: [wsdm] Next F2F proposal



Did anyone respond to Homayoun's 
question? Can we confirm travel reservations for the F2F? Where exactly in 
Boston will it be held? Any recommended hotels?

 

Also, yes I can maintain a list of 
testable interactions for the interop.

 

Regards,

Hi,

At the call today, I got a bit confused regarding the 
  next f2f and where it will take place.  Is it definitely going to take 
  place in and around Boston?  If so, are we pretty much committed to the 
  dates 10/20 noon to 10/22 noon?  I realize that the venue for the meeting 
  is still undecided.

I need to make some plans around these dates and it 
  would be good to nail them down 
  asap.

Cheers,
H.

Hi Folks, 
I 
    think we had a very successful (and invigorating) F2F this week. I'm glad it 
    was so well attended. A few things to catch those who had to leave 
    early...

I will send out minutes, 
    action items, and issues tomorrow. 

Next F2F
At the F2F yesterday we 
    decided to have our next WSDM F2F in Boston on the other half of the 
    WS-Utiltiy WG's F2F week October 20-22. If there is a deadly conflict for 
    many that week, please speak up!
We are 
    looking for a host! So if you can host in Boston, please speak 
    up!

Next Interop – 
We decided on the following timeline for our next Interops in 1Q04. 
    We planned an internal (WSDM only) and external interop. 
    

• Identify dependent Spec levels for 
    platforms – Nov (w/ 
    Spec)
• Scenario – end year
• Ongoing external endpoints w/ virtual interops
• Internal Date – 1.0 Mid Feb 
• External 
    Date – March? (next 
    available public event)

We also 
    thought that it might be valuable to keep an ongoing document of 
    interactions that should be testable and should work based on work progressing in the MOWS and MUST specs (i.e. we could 
    start adding relationships and notificaitons soon). 
Is Mike Clements willing to maintain 
    this document and keep interop on schedule for us?

Specifications – committee draft due end November. 
We must start working in parallel subteams with concrete 
    proposal to critique and fix. I have issued invitations for 3 subteams. We 
    also started a metadata identification subteam (Heather lead) and the 
    relationships subteam (Igor lead)will continue. New function should be 
    kicked off with concrete proposals from an interested member or as the 
    result of the initial subteam discussion. 
We need to be close to completing initial technical content by the 
    end of September.
