Just re-read the latest draft ACS specification and wanted to send in some more feedback - looking good! - Recommend that the requirements be amended to include the compilation model as discussed in the last telecom. - Are there two types of dependencies: install/deploy time and runtime? Perhaps the deploy time could include the compilation engines whereas the runtime could just include what is needed to run the job. Just a thought as perhaps based on this it might be possible for clients of ACS to inquire what is needed ahead of time to prepare, etc. - Should AAID be defined using the results of WS-Naming working group? - Security - Would the signature be created and checked automatically by the implementation of ARI or by Business Activity Managers? - Is there a possible relationship between ACS and software such as Install Shield or Install Anywhere? Curious. Looking forward to the next telecom on the 20th! -- Michael Behrens R2AD, LLC (571) 594-3008 (cell) *new* (703) 714-0442 (land)
