Web Services Core Working Group Charter

Dear Chairs,

Here is a first draft for the Web Services Core Working Group Charter:
 http://www.w3.org/2007/05/ws-core-charter.html

I believe I included everything I heard in the past few months, with the
exemption of mentioning doing Web Services interoperability events. It
is not clear to me if we have consensus around that. Note that the fact
that it is not mentioned doesn't preclude the Group for organizing some
though.

I also had side discussions with Ian and other folks during the AC
meeting. The PSIG may decide to address the question of second editions
and their relation to the W3C Patent Policy. I'm moving forward for the
moment on the charter, knowingly ignoring the fact that the PSIG may
recommend against the charter in the future.

I would also welcome feedback on the level of participation that would
be expected from the W3C Team. As an example, the XML Core Working Group
has 5% time on it, though it varies a lot nowadays due to the
coordination on c14n 1.1 and HRRI. My sense is that this Group will
require more resources than that.

Philippe
