  AI-0709c: Hiro will update the teleconference schedule to move the

* Glossary Publication approach

  Jem described the main purpose of the glossary work; reconciliation
  with terms introduced/used by the EGA Reference Model. Since the
  reconciliation work has not extended to the OGSA Architecture the
  two documents are no longer in sync. 

  The group discussed a number of ways to proceed:
  - Publish just the Glossary (out-of-sync with OGSA Arch.)
  - Leave the Glossary final draft as a stable group-internal version
    that will potentially require further work later; and publish
    in-sync with the next OGSA Arch version (no plan yet)
  - Errata release with updates in the OGSA Arch. just for consistency
    with the Data updates in the Glossary and leaving out the
    Reference model terms.
  - Minor release with updates to the Data section of the OGSA Arch.
    and consistent usage of Reference Model terminology; without
    further work on the Arch. document (this could be an errata
    release depending on the work needed)

  Jem said that the time he can commit to the Glossary is limited and
  he will not be able to continue as Glossary editor after this work
  is completed.

  The OGSA Data Architecture document is now in final review, which is
  expected to be completed within a few weeks. The goal is to finish
  public comment and have it published by OGF21 in October.

  Agreed that the group has to first get an estimate on the work
  needed to prepare a new minor release of the OGSA Arch. document
  before deciding on which option to choose.
