• Summary of Action Items

<mchampion> The action item link in the agenda is wrong. It should be http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/arch/3/08/ActionItems.htm

<hugo> Agenda: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-ws-arch/2003Sep/0007.html

Scribe: Meeting minutes: we have missing minutes for one day of F2F

<mikem> can soneone repost the AI list into irc?
... the url that is

Scribe: The URL in the agenda is http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/arch/3/07/items.htm but this looks out-of-date

<mikem> yes - the AI url from the agenda is stale

Scribe: The actions are in the minutes from the last call: http://www.w3.org/2002/ws/arch/3/08/2003-08-21-ws-arch.htm

<mchampion> ACTION: Hugo will update glossary with the definition of "synchronous" that we think we agreed to on 21 August. Look at IRC log!

Agenda item: re-engage brains around time-lines, plans, deliverables, actions. The deadline is January - charter runs out at the end of January. but re-chartering should be OK - but it's not a given. What do we do about trout ponds? Finesse, change requirements, defer to next iteration? We need to come to resolution. Where are the holes?

Discovery. DBooth used to own it. What needs to be done here, or is there not enough industry practice? Last draft includes more stuff, but more coming.

Katia is interested in automated discovery, proposes working with David. Automated discovery is the most important. We need a short section introducing the topic and identifying the WSA interest [non-normative].

Chair: What extra material does Katia want?

Katia: Consider futures of UDDI. Also interested in semantics. interest from DARPA in standardizing OWL/S. How? inject small amount (as in WSD), incremental. (Based on Katia's work on DAML/S.) Possible follow-ons: add non-normative text, recommend W3C charter a WG.

Hugo: SWS IG - how we balance F2F time devoted to document vs. discussion W3C issued proposal on SWS 8/28/03 - discussion closes in a month. Culmination of discussions from the plenary.

Chair (?): We don't want to rat-hole on the semantic web wars. One informal but important goal of WSA is to simply explain how all this stuff fits together. We can say something non-normative about semantics, but let's stay away from ccontroversial issues.

<mchampion> ACTION: Katia, DavidB, other interested parties will analyze Discovery treatment in WSA and outline additional work
... ACTION: Chairs will make substnatial time at F2F to discuss Discovery

<hugo> SWS IG proposal: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Member/w3c-ac-members/2003JulSep/0025.html

do we have a "spanning set" yet?

<DaveH> Have we identified all of the base components? Are all of the gounding assertions identified?
