RE: [ws-rx-implement] Interoperability and the F2F
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
