It will be desirable to get the input from the
Interop Subcommittee (bugs in the spec, essentially new issues if any) before
the March (tentatively) F2Fin order to have enough time to accommodate the
input before sending the specs out for public review. Doug, would that be
possible with your proposed schedule for the Interop
Subcommittee?
Thanks,
Sanjay

Interoperability and the F2F
Updated the proposal to make it
relative to the next CD since basing an interop
on WDs doesn't make as much sense. Changed dates
to be relative dates.
__________________
In terms of
presenting something to the TC during next week's
F2F, what about this:
DD/MM
- TC approves next CD
+ 4wks - Send
a draft scenario document to the TC.
This scenario doc should try to cover
interoperability
for the features defined in the core spec. [*]
+ 2wks - Final date for feedback from the TC on the
doc.
TC
doesn't need to formally approve it but we request
suggestions/comments by this
date.
+ 2wks - Unless we totally messed
up the first draft and just need
to make minor changes based on the feedback,
we
produce
the official scenario doc that will be used
for the interop
event.
Send
out an official notification of the interop event
and doc(s).
+ 6wks - Shoot for an interop event this
week.
Previous interops allowed for 6 weeks between scenario doc
being published and the
event itself.
[*] Questions:
Both specs or just core spec?
Do we want people to support
ws-policy?
I'm leaning towards just the core spec.
What type of event do we want? Personally, I like the idea
of
a virtual interop but I know that the
pressure of a f2f helps
force people to make
the dates.
(virtual == put up an endpoint
(RMS and RMD) on the web)
for example:
http://wsi.alphaworks.ibm.com:8080/wsrm/index.html
so people can test at will)
What kind of results do we want to publish and how do we want
to
publish them? Generic: "it went
well" - or specific "company X
passed 1,2,3
but not 4,5,6" ??? Do we even want to publish
anything at all? What does Oasis
require?
thoughts?
thanks
