* Basic profile update

  Tom, Dave & Ian are preparing a basic profile draft. They should be
  ready to discuss it by the next call.

* Minutes of Dec 22, Dec 01, Nov 24, Nov 10, and Nov 03 approved with
  no changes.

* Next F2F meeting
  
  A lot of difficulty in chosing dates due to holidays and people's
  committments.

  Dates finally chosen February 14-15. (With apologies to those who
  cannot make it.)

  Location is Chicago, probably at an airport hotel. Andrew has
  tentatively booked a conference room (200USD/day) at the Westin near
  the airport. (No need to rent a car.) 

  Action: Andrew to check if we can get the conference room for free
          if a minimum number of people choose to stay
          there. (Expected number of participants between 10 and 20)

  Hiro has sent out a request for participation:
  - Can attend: Dave Snelling, Ian Foster, Steve Tuecke, Andrew
        Grimshaw, Jem Treadwell, Hiro Kishimoto, Andreas Savva, Steve
        Newhouse (probably), Jay Unger (probably)

  - Cannot attend: Chris Smith, Dave Berry, Latha Srinivasan, Mike
           Behrnes

* GGF13 session plan

  - Proposal by Hiro on gridforge
    https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/ogsa-wg/document/GGF13_session_plan/en/1
  
  - Deadline is in February but OGSA has many sessions and
    dependencies so the plan should be fixed soon.

  - Fred asked for one more design team session on 'Resource
    Management.' An 'architecture session' to discuss resource model
    issues, e.g., GLUE, WS-CIM, JSDL, etc.

    Note: Once the CMM document is out (expected delivery concurrent
          with the OGSA version 1.0 and Glossary) the CMM-WG should be
          closed. Activities are planned to continue within the
          OGSA-WG.

  - EMS
    - Not sure that there will be a draft profile ready by that time.
    - The GGF session is meant for discussion; no commitment to have a
      draft ready.
    - There is a tentative plan between Andrew and Steve N to discuss
      EM profile issues around 1,2 February in London. 
      - Hiro asked for the details to be made public so that other
        interested parties, including himself, might consider joining.
    - The January 17 teleconference is planned for EMS profile
      discussion.

  - Naming
    - Two parts: High level (Human - logical) layers (covered by RNS)
      and lower 2 levels (WS-Naming requirements)

    - Andrew would like to get a copy of RR paper discussed within
      WSRF TC. Not clear whether it was made public.

    - Suggestion to add Tom Maguire as session owner. Confirm with Tom
      next week.

  - Data 
    - Similar with EMS, not sure that there will be a profile draft by
      that time, but should be able to discuss it.
    - Concentrating on high-level architecture at the moment.

* OGSA version 1.0 & Glossary status

  - A couple of issues remaining: EMS final draft and naming. Provided
    these are fixed this week (Andrew sent draft and reply to both;
    Andreas and Jem to check) then we should be ready for final review
    next week.

  - Deadline for comments within group by next call Wednesday
    - Comments to list and final review on call.
    - Only looking for sanity checking at this point.

  - Should co-ordinate with Fred and the submission of the CMM
    document (GFD number assignments and cross-refs).
