hi Diane,
First I'd like the chance to be able to focus on the
specific questions. I don't expect that I'll be able to do that until Monday.
Once we have those out of the way we can see where we stand.
Regards,
Mary

Mary, Alex, John and Robin,
Would it be best to set up a call to discuss
the plan going forward given the confusion we've had in the past? If
you'd like to talk give me some ideas on available times in the next few days
and I'll confirm with a call in number.
Thanks.

Re: [wsbpel-spec-edit] Re:
Updated Committee Spec docs and RDDL
Hi Diane,
Thanks for the email.
Mary, other OASIS
staff and others ...
I would like to confirm that I understand
how to deal with URLs:
[1]
For the following URL:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/wsbpel-specification-draft.pdf
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/process/abstract/ws-bpel_abstract_common_base.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/process/executable/ws-bpel_executable.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/plnktype/ws-bpel_plnktype.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/serviceref/ws-bpel_serviceref.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/varprop/ws-bpel_varprop.xsd
we will declare them as generic URLs always point to the latest
version of those documents, right?
[2]
And, we will copy docs
previously published in PR01 to the new location
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR01/wsbpel-specification-draft.pdf
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR01/process/abstract/ws-bpel_abstract_common_base.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR01/process/executable/ws-bpel_executable.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR01/plnktype/ws-bpel_plnktype.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR01/serviceref/ws-bpel_serviceref.xsd
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR01/varprop/ws-bpel_varprop.xsd
[3]
I am
wondering whether we do the same for PR02 by keep documents for the version of
PR02 also at docs.oasis-open.org. (e.g. " http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR02/...")
[4]
I also noticed in RDDL one of
previous version URL are:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/PR01/process/abstract/ws-bpel_abstract_common_base.xsd
(Note:
PR01)
Some are:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/CD01/process/executable/ws-bpel_executable.xsd
(Note:
CD01)
I am wondering:
[a] what CD01 stands for? Comittee
Draft?
[b] should they be "PR02" instead, because our last published
version are PR02 (public review 2) before our CS01 (committee specification
1)? [I hope I got all the terms, right?]
All in all, I guess it
is a good idea for OASIS to come up with a clear formal guidline on how to
publish documents at docs.oasis-open.org in future for TC members to
follow.
Thanks!
Regards,
Alex

Mary, Thanks very much.
John and Alex, please review the rddl and let us
know if you have any questions.
Mary,
As usual, I have questions for you!
How do we populate the specification uri's
on the first page for this version and current version? Do you do
that? eg: Specification URIs:
This Version:
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/CS01/wsbpel-v2.0-CS01.html
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/CS01/wsbpel-v2.0-CS01.doc
http://docs.oasis-open.org/wsbpel/2.0/CS01/wsbpel-v2.0-CS01.pdf
Again on the first page, I'm not sure why
you chose the link you did for the previous verson - ie, the version that
went into the second public review that shows changes from the first public
review:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/21574/wsbpel-specification-public_review_draft_2_diff.doc
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/21575/wsbpel-specification_public_review_draft_2_diff.pdf
The change marks might be confusing since
they're not the changes versus "This Version" but as compared with an
older version. It seems like it would make sense to point to either the
clean second public review version, or a copy of the second public review
versio with changes marked versus "This Version". The latter is
available at: http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/22037/wsbpel-specification-draft%20candidate%20CD%20Jan%2025%2007%20diff%20wit%85.pdfand http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/21993/wsbpel-specification-draft%20candidate%20CD%20Jan%2025%2007%20diff%20with%20public%20review%20%202.doc
How do we figure out what needs to be put
in the trademark field? I know we use the names of other
specifications done at OASIS. Should they be there. Howe about
those approved by other org's or just published by companies? I guess
we'd go according to the references section to identify them - does that
sound right?

Diane

Updated Committee Spec docs and
RDDL
Hi everyone,
In order to
shortcut further delays, I've taken the liberty (with Diane's okay) to update
the specification with the latest cover page(s) metadata as well as update the
RDDL file. There's one new bit of metadata that was recently approved by the
Board of Directors concerning trademarks. More information can be found here:
http://www.oasis-open.org/who/trademark.php. Note that the last paragraph in the status section
contains a field for any additional terms that should be trademarked and will
need to be updated.
Regards,
Mary

Web Services Business Process Execution Language
(WS-BPEL)
31 January 2007
Introduction
This document describes version 2.0 of the WS-BPEL namespace. It also contains a
directory of links to related resources using the Resource Directory Description Language (RDDL)
2.0.
Namespace URI Versioning Policy
It is the intent of the OASIS WS-BPEL Technical Committee that
the WS-BPEL v2.0 namespace URI will not change arbitrarily with each
subsequent revision of the corresponding WSDL or XML Schema documents but
rather change only when a subsequent revision, published in conjunction with a
Committee Specification, results in non-backwardly compatible changes from a
previously published Committee Specification.
Under this policy, the following are examples of backwards
compatible changes that would not result in assignment of a new namespace URI:
addition of new global element, attribute, complexType and
simpleType definitions
addition of new operations within a WSDL portType or
binding (along with the corresponding schema, message and part
definitions)
addition of new elements or attributes in locations covered
by a previously specified wildcard
modifications to the pattern facet of a type definition for
which the value-space of the previous definition remains valid or for which
the value-space of the preponderance of instance would remain valid
modifications to the cardinality of elements for which the
value-space of possible instance documents conformant to the previous
revision of the schema would still be valid with regards to the revised
cardinality rule
