In progress. Goal is by F2F

 
All to
     review Issues List 8 and send resolution of closed issues not reflected in
     list to Ken. 

No information received. May be a
topic for the F2F to close these.

 

 

Schema subcommittee update

Anne sent out notes about issues discussed and
resolved. Maintaining list of subcommittee issues.

Now two decision types.
Have not decided if target in rule will be optional or not. Optional is
optimization if rules in policy all have same target.

Tim - Schema does show it as optional.

Anne - okay will mark it as closed at optional

Discussed various other
issues. See Anne's notes from last two subcommittee
meetings for full list.

Set operators, nameform
matches, and two numeric types added to the schema.

Still working on target
matching and schema for it.

Monday - multiple decisions should be as if
separate evaluation of policy for each element in resource hierarchy.

 

Tim - put out 15i of schema and v15 of spec and
then have next call on Monday. There will be no Friday
call. Also suggest make a goal of having conceptual issues settled by F2F and
focus on tuning the text.

Hal - Have two more Mondays before F2F.

 

Some discussion as to whether F2F is two or three
days. It is three days. 7/30 - 8/1. Don needs to confirm the room for
7/30 and let the committee know.
