     - 2 hour telcons for this and next week.  Sorry about Canada Day...
  c. XMLP Last Call comments [.6]

Some discussion on whether the ability to escape xop:Include was
necessary and the performance implications involved.  WG agreed to
forward Jacek's comments to XMLP WG, noting that the first impacts
description, the other is a general comment on their design that doesn't
have obvious WSDL implications.

  - Revived proposal [.2]

[.1] http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/desc/2/06/issues.html#x130
[.2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Jun/0205.html

Discussion on how best to accomplish this.  We find a more concrete
proposal from DaveO at
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004May/0029.html.
Sanjiva prefers doing this in a new SOAP binding.

Straw Poll: Are we interested in adding async capability into WSDL? 
        Yes: 15 No: 3 Abstain: 5 
Several express their desire to keep this as lightweight as possible.

ACTION: David O will update his proposal for adding async capability.


------------------------------------------------------------------
8.  Issue 167: Synchronize pseudo-schema [.1]
  - Jonathan's summary of state [.2]

[.1] http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/desc/2/06/issues.html#x167
[.2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Jun/0207.html

Discovered that Part 1 and Part 3 are inconsistent in allowing f&p on
message references and fault references.  Discussion expanded to a more
comprehensive plan for allowing features and properties throughout WSDL.
Combined this issue with discussion on Issue 157.

RESOLUTION: Allow f&p on services and endpoints.
ACTION: Editors to add f&p in services and endpoints. 

NEW ISSUE: Should f&p be allowed in more places (any component, 
           messageRef and faultRef components?) 

Straw Poll: Should we allow f&p on message references and fault
references,
            and binding message references? 
 Yes: 15 No: 2 Abstain: 6 

RESOLUTION: Add f&p to message reference, fault references, and binding
message reference components.

[updated] ACTION: Editors to add f&p in services and endpoints,
                and message reference, fault reference, and binding
                message reference components.

RESOLUTION: Close issue 157 
RESOLUTION: Close issue 167 

ACTION: Editors to synchronize specs, schema, pseudo-schema on where f&p

        can appear

------------------------------------------------------------------
9.  Issue 157: f&p at the service level [.1]
  - Glen's proposal [.2] - simply allow f&p markup in <service>
  - Hugo's proposal [.3] to also allow f&p markup in <endpoint>

[.1] http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/desc/2/06/issues.html#x157
[.2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Mar/0186.html
[.3] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Apr/0046.html

See above.

------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Issue 160: Formalize processing model [.1]
  - Jacek's proposal [.2]
  - Jonathan's interpretation of Jacek's proposal [.3]
  - David's counterproposal [.4]

[.1] http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/desc/2/06/issues.html#x160
[.2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Feb/0121.html
[.3] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Jun/0206.html
[.4] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Jun/0213.html

Preference for Jonathan's formulation over DBooth's.  Lingering concerns
over testability may surface later as the test suite coalesces.

RESOLUTION: Close issue 160 
ACTION: Editors to incorporate Jonathan's resolution to issue 160.

------------------------------------------------------------------
11. Issue 169: Syntax for webMethod - property or attribute? [.1]
  - Issue obsolete? [.2]

[.1] http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/desc/2/06/issues.html#x169
[.2] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-ws-desc/2004Jun/0231.html

Some confusion over what the status quo is.  No webMethod attribute in
the spec today, but nothing prevents you from using property markup for
this.  David still has an issue with the syntax, and the relation to his
useOperationWebMethod attribute proposal.

NEW ISSUE: useOperationWebMethod proposal. 
ACTION: DaveO to re-present useOperationWebMethod proposal. 
ACTION: DaveO to re-present webMethod syntax issue.

------------------------------------------------------------------
12. Issue 209: Reference frag ids from media type registration [.1]
  - Reassign as editorial - the link is simply obsolete.

[.1] http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/desc/2/06/issues.html#x209

RESOLUTION: Reassign 209 as editorial. close by referring to editors. 
ACTION: Editors to fix media-type reg frag id link, per 209.

live.

  - Change actual value to [normalized value]?

[.1] http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/desc/2/06/issues.html#x219

------------------------------------------------------------------
15. Issue 220: Document interface extension semantics [.1]

            refer to xml 1.1 and clarifying note.
