AI: conformance targets

["Martin Chapman" <martin.chapman@oracle.com>]

I have an action item to propose the conformance targets for the SCA BPEL C+I spec.

As a reminder the Liaison SC agreed the following recommendation:

   "Conformance targets can be categorized into 
    1) document artifacts (or constructs within them) that can be checked statically. 
    2) SCA runtimes, which we may require to exhibit certain behaviors. "

Therefore in the SCA BPEL C+I spec we can talk about SCA documents (scdl), BPEL documents, and runtimes.
Specifically I propose the following conformance targets, in addition to any targets defined by Assembly:

WS-BPEL Process: as defined in WS-BPEL 2.0. An unmodified (from and SCA perspective) process description.
SCA WS-BPEL Process: a WS-BPEL 2.0 process that uses the SCA specific BPEL extensions.
SCA WS-BPEL Runtime: derived from "SCA Runtime" in the Assembly spec and "WS-BPEL processor" in WS-BPEL 2.0.


Cheers,
  Martin.
