[wss-primer] Use cases description format

Title: Possible times for WSS Primer and Use Cases Tele-conf

We may 
want to 
refine or adopt the use cases description format 
used in the SAML TC's

Use 
Cases and Requirements document: 

 

http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/security/docs/draft-sstc-saml-reqs-01.pdf 

 

The 
WS-Security requirements will be captured normatively in the core 
specification,

which we probably want to cross-reference with the use cases 
that we categorize

as 
in-scope.

 

thanks,

Zahid

Subject: PRIMER: WSS Primer 
    and Use Cases 

    
Hi All, 

    
We are far enough along, now, that we can make a good start 
    on a primer 
document.  I would like to set up a 
    call in the near future -- I'll 
sponsor the dial-in 
    line. 

    
Even for a small group like this one, scheduling is going to 
    be a bear. 
I'm planning to use only 30 minutes this 
    first time, so please give me 
three (or more) 
    one-hour blocks in the next week that work for you. 

    
At Zahid's (excellent) suggestion, I have asked that we get 
    a separate 
mailing list (sent request to Kelvin and 
    Chris on 10/17).  I have not 
heard back from 
    Kelvin or Chris, so we can get status on that tomorrow. 
Until then, please maintain the above subject line so that we 
    only 
occupy a single thread on the main list (better 
    suggestions, anyone?) 

    
I'm thinking that the output of our work will be a single 
    document, 
primer and then UCs, with the UCs 
    categorized as in or out of scope for 
the current 
    spec.  This is just my thinking, though, so it is open until 
    
we make a decision.  I would especially like input and 
    guidance from 
those who have been around the 
    standards-body track a few times... 

    
Preliminary agenda for first call: 

    
        1) 
    administrativia 
           - who will be the archivist for UCs? 
    
           - 
    how will we communicate (separate mailing list, shared 
archive space at OASIS??)? 
    
           - 
    ... 
        2) 
    Discussion (and decision, if feasible) as to structure of 
deliverable(s) 
        
    3) Creation of timeline for our work 
    
        4) Etc. 
    

    
Please give me feedback on this agenda -- again, those who 
    are older and 
wiser in standards work should feel 
    free to help structure this in a 
useful and 
    productive way. 

    
Thanks,

P.P.S. Just in case you were wondering, you got this twice

I wanted those who prioritize the

'To:' line to 
    pay attention :-)
