* Profile definition update

  - Revised document is on gridforge
  - Tom will send out a final call email and then submit to the
    Editor.

* IPsphere OGSA presentation

  - Planning an initial call tomorrow. Looking for volunteers to do
    the presentation.
    - This is fairly short notice. The call was arranged this week.
  - Andrew G and Mark M volunteered to do the presentation using the
    "OGSA Introduction" slide deck prepared for MDC.
    - Hiro has asked Ravi to send back the last version of the MDC
      slides; use the one on gridforge otherwise.
  - A number of other people are also planning to call in: Hiro,
    Michael, Jem.

  - Having an introductory set of slides that anyone from the group
    can use to present is a good idea and hopefully the MDC
    presentation will evolve to fill that function.

* Naming review

  - The Naming WG has a call arranged for tomorrow
  - Andrew has posted the requirements document written before the
    OGSA-Naming WG was formed (document created by the then Naming
    design team).
  - Tentative agenda
    - Whether the wsa fields in question can be assumed to be IRIs
    - Uniqueness
    - On the wire issue (resolved previously?)

  - Hiro asked that resolution of issues should be documented. (This
    would be useful in general even if an issue is thought to have
    been already resolved.)

  - Next OGSA call to review Naming issues resolution planned for
    Dec. 19

* BES Naming discussion

  - Consensus reached in BES-WG:
    - It is in line with Tom's policy statement:
      - Require EPRs, don't require but recommend WS-Names
    - Also define some way of advertising whether a service returnes
      EPRs that are WS-Names or not
      - For WSRF will define the property to advertise this

  - Reviewed Tom's policy statement again. No revisions needed.
  - Agreed to put it on gridforge as a separate note (e.g., some kind
    of architecture note). 
    - Andreas will create this category; add the note and advertise it
      on the list.

  - Informal interop next week in UK
    - Reviewing the OASIS interop document and planning the activity
    - Eventually this may become a more formal event but the focus
      next week is to get some initial interoperability

* EMS Architecture update

  - Dec 21 is the planned joint call with EMS and CDDLM/GRAAP
    - (This is also the final call of the year)
  - Steven has been reviewing the WS-Agreement spec and will be
    arranging a separate call with GRAAP-WG

  - Ian's comment in the agenda
    - Agree that there are lots of ways of doing selection. There is
      no specific proposal, just a initial motivation raised on a call
      sometime back to look into existing work.
    - This is not an issue for the specific scenario that was under
      review since there is no selection (pre-selection assumed)
    - Steven will confirm with Ian that this understanding is correct.

  - Hiro and Andreas to share the updated deployment scenarios list.
  - The next EMS call is for Dec 14.
  - Confirmed UML tool selection: RSM is ok; waiting for the way of
    getting licenses to clear up.

* Next call - Monday

  - Security profile
  - OGSA 1.5 and Glossary

  NB: Final call of the year is 12/21
