All, After considerable discussion, both in email and during the meeting, the group approved the following definition for profiles: "A named set of constraints on one or more identified base specifications, including the identification of any implementing subclasses of datatypes, semantic interpretations, vocabularies, options and parameters of those base specifications necessary to accomplish a particular function. "[1] In reading over the email thread it occurs to me that we did not discuss the term "vocabularies" - we may wish to revisit that. The requirement that the definition be contrasted to mime types was seen as being specific to content negotiation and therefore would not be part of a single definition of profile that would be appropriate for both the Guidance deliverable and the Content Negotiation deliverable. This could be added to the Content Negotiation document in its definition section, if desired. This decision does not preclude further discussion if needed, but hopefully provides a stake in the ground for our work.
