Administrivia

Last Call status on five documents

LC period ends 19 September - get your issues in now (roll up, roll up!)

issues classified as editorial

getting confirmation on the editorial status of issues

LC300

Arthur: suggesting a common bibliography for all documents

Marsh: sounds good, but a fair bit of work - editors willing to do this?

Arthur: seems less efficient, but it is a lot of work

RESOLUTION: accepted - to the editors to fix

LC302

Marsh: point to RFC3987 instead of the draft TAG finding

RESOLUTION: accepted - to the editors to fix

LC303

Marsh: mention IRIs in Primer to point out that they can be used in place of URIs (almost everywhere)
... perhaps Hugo and Kevin can deal with this

LC304

Marsh: clarifying the concept of IANA media type token

Arthur: should we be skipping Hugo's issues until he is next on the call?

Marsh: let's skip this one

Arthur: and Hugo wrote this section, too - Hugo is commenting on a section he wrote - difficult to address in his absence

LC305

Marsh: divergence of notations between WSDL and WS-A - suggestion to add this statement to our notation, but complicated by our extension notation

<Allen> Have to drop off

Arthur: what does WS-A expect in the way of extensibility?

Marsh: open content model
... they do have some extensions

Arthur: maybe we have the same text in both their spec and ours, but clarify

Marsh: will volunteer to craft some text to go in both documents, phrased suitably for both

<scribe> ACTION: Marsh to propose some text to address LC305 in terms suitable for both WS-A and WS-D [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action01]

LC306

editorial comments relating to wsdlx

<Marsh> RESOLUTION: wsdlx is defined in Core, extended in Adjuncts. Editorial clarifications as necessary to explain this will be made. Hyphen removed as well.

LC308

Marsh: as long as this does not imply that you can use fragment identifiers as part of the language, this is OK

Arthur: this seems mostly harmless

Marsh: shall we resolve to accept this here, and in similar situations

RESOLUTION: accepted here and in similar situations.

<scribe> ACTION: Arthur to effect the changes necessary to resolve LC308 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action02]

LC309

Arthur: we can remove the list to reduce maintenance

RESOLUTION: accepted

<scribe> ACTION: Arthur to make the change to resolve LC309 (remove list, make reference general) [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action03]

LC310

Roberto: suggest removing the ws prefix from the items (shouldn't need to specify the prefix)

Marsh: look at section 4.2, ensure that it's consistent and clear which import we are taking about

<scribe> ACTION: Roberto to fix LC310 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action04]

<Roberto> me it won't work

<Marsh> RESOLUTION: LC310 closed, accepted.

LC312

RESOLUTION: accepted - to the editors to fix

LC314

RESOLUTION: accepted without dissent

LC316

Jacek: we should not call this an example - should include it as normative

Roberto: but then we have two things to keep in sync - drop the example and make the schema the definition

Marsh: perhaps change the word "definition"

<asir> There is a bug in the schema at http://www.w3.org/2005/08/wsdl/rpc.xsd - attributeFormDefault is declared to be unqualified - I'll raise a separate issue

Discussion of how to reference the (normative) schema, but leave this example in place

RESOLUTION: add the wrpc namespace to table 1-1; in section 4.1.2, insert "excerpt" to clarify that this is not the full normative description

<scribe> ACTION: Roberto to act upon the resolution of LC316 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action05]

LC319

<scribe> ACTION: Marsh to mark LC319 as non-editorial and ask for a proposal from Hugo [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action06]

LC322

RESOLUTION: accept the proposed new wording in LC322

LC324

<scribe> Postponed until we deal with LC318

LC325

RESOLUTION: accept the proposed new wording in LC325

LC301

asir: did we have a similar issue in previous Last Call?

Marsh: we had some granularity issues, not sure if they are the same
... if we don't change this, it would be hard to support WS-A (which requires the flexibility)

Jacek: would support this

Marsh: this changes the model, and schema - would changing this force us into another Last Call?

Arthur: have to support what people want to do

Marsh: shall we get a statement from WS-A to support this change?

<scribe> ACTION: Jonathan to run LC301 past WS-Addressing to get confirmation [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action07]

LC307

Hugo withdrew the issue

RESOLUTION: close with no action

<Arthur> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-desc-comments/2005Aug/0012.html

LC311

Discussion of namespace URI/IRI

Marsh: namespace can use IRI

RESOLUTION: add clarification that the URI for the extension is the namespace URI, and this URI can be an IRI

<scribe> ACTION: Arthur to implement the resolution of LC311 [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action08]

LC313

RESOLUTION: LC313 proposal accepted as stated

Brief discussion of the advantages of using the formal notation (Z) as a means of discovering problems in specification

<scribe> ACTION: Marsh to include "Z notation in Part 2" in next agenda [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2005/09/01-ws-desc-minutes.html#action09]
