4. Administrivia 
a. Charter update review

Philippe: proposal, don't ask for extension, recharter instead.
Jonathan:  http://www.w3.org/2003/12/ws-desc-charter.html
Philippe: 1 - 2 weeks for us to review charter.  Send comments to Philippe
directly or through mailing list.
Bijan: is the new charter controversial?
Philippe: 2 additional years is controversial
Philippe: chair can reject an issue based only on schedule
Philippe: if schedule is going to change by more than 3 months than we have
to ask the director.
dbooth: change wording on schedule so that any issue will be accepted but
schedule will be taken into account
Philippe: must formally address all issues after last call
Jonathan: add language to allow chair to allow additional participants for
QA
Jonathan: worry about being guinea pig for patent policy
Jonathan: Go for new 2 year charter but perhaps recharter in 3 months with
change in patent policy
Philippe: easier to start with 3 month extension and then recharter
Philippe will ask if 3 month extension is possible while waiting on patent
policy

Resolved: accept Amy's proposal

9. Proposal for combinding the two attribute operation styles to one

Roberto: what is the benefit of a single style
Jonathan: we had two styles that were related in a strange way

Resolved: Defer issue until decision is made on whether to support
attributes
------------------------------------------------------------------ 
10. HTTP binding options

Sanjiva: option 4 is reasonable but option 5 is broken, breaks message up
between URI and body
Umit: confusion about what option 5 means
Jonathan: option 4 seems to be the sweet spot, some want option 3, some
option 5
