* Teleconference minutes, April 27, approved with no changes

* May F2F update
  
  - No update
  - The ACS F2F is planned during the same week but in a different
    place.

* GGF14 schedule review

  There is some confusion over GGF14 dates. The GGF site however has
  the correct dates (June 27-30).

  Some people had already made plans based on the 'old' dates of June
  26-29. So they might not be able to attend any sessions scheduled on
  the last day, e.g., design team reports.

** WSDM and OGSA cross-wg session
   - Being planned
   - Must be Monday or Tuesday
   - WSDM TC is also planning some other events at GGF14 
     - Community session: light presentation interop/demo and a F2F on
       June 30
     - Also a deep dive session

   Action: Fred will update the sessions spreadsheet with the details,
           constraints etc, and send back to Hiro.

** DMTF Utility Computing (UC) WG cross-wg session
    - Constraints:
      - Must be Monday or Tuesday
      - Tom and Fred are owners
      - Should not conflict with JSDL and CDDLM
    - Has overlap with EMS / CSG on allocation and resource
      reservation
    - Planning on information exchange: from UC to GGF/OGSA
    - EGA members are also participating in the UC-WG

    Action: Tom to provide a more detailed agenda
  
** Status and Future session
  - Renamed Basic Profile to WSRF Basic Profile; need to consider
    implications and possibly present and discuss these at the 'Status
    and Future' session
  - (Also need to talk about it during the May F2F)

** Outreach session

   Need to double-check who will be representing EGA and when they
   will be available

   Action: Hiro to follow up with Andrew and EGA people

** EMS & RSS: Hiro to follow up with Andrew and Ravi

** RM: Fred will talk with Tom Rooney

** Security: Not sure yet. Hiro to follow up with Takuya and Frank.

** Naming: Not sure; nobody on the call.

** Submitted documents session: 
   - Get feeback for documents submitted (perhaps already in public
     comment at the time)
   - It is an outreach session and should be held early on.

** Design team report session

** Overall

   OGSA-WG should prepare its schedule and submit early in order to
   help GGF planning

* Basic Profile review

  - The updated version is not on gridforge yet. Tom will upload it
    soon after this call.

  - Discussion points for F2F:
    - Issues: [1322, 1323] proxy certs and assertions

  - Do we think basic profile is complete and does it form a base for
    interoperability?

  - Appendix has grown bigger
    - Renewable references
    - Key exchange
  
  - 'Naming' still needs to be done separately in order to cover wider
    grid requirements. Renewable references are useful on their own so
    they are included in the BP.

    This is a factoring decision and may have to be re-visited as the
    Naming Profile work proceeds.

  - Next steps: 
    - Put up updated version
    - Discuss open issues during F2F

  - Ian to get Univa folks to review
  - Tom to also ask comments from Marty Humphrey
    - May also send it to Savas for comments

  - Side discussion on WS-Addressing schema stability: 
    - It is holding back the work of 2-3 OASIS TCs.

  - Issue with state of References: Should they be 'final' or not
    - The problem is whether the changes are non-substantive or not.

  - p4, section 1.3: Namespaces need updating
  - p4: "Conformance requirements" dangling reference 
  - R0305 & R0306 duplicate; this is a known issue.
  - Notification is sometimes abbreviated as WS-N and WS-NT: choose
    one and use consistently.

  - Is it ok to have a normative appendix? 
    - Yes, it's common. No need to put this text in the body of the
      document. 
  - Changed the name from 'normative description' to 'specification'

  - Also need to put this description in the profile definition
    document.

* Profile definition document

  - Need to update references
  - Need to close issue on 'process' issue

* Roadmap document 

  - New version is on gridforge
  - Need more data from the various WGs
