Hi Andreas, Let's post this issue to XML-CDL public comment tracker. Then CDDLM team will revise CDL spec before publication. https://forge.gridforum.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=599 ---- Hiro Kishimoto Andreas Savva wrote:
Wrt to the 'lazy' discussion, can you also update the CDL spec to make clear that the user (or other entities) may also do the lazy resolution at any time before actual deployment? I am referring to text like l.30-34, page 25, of the public comment version of the CDL spec.

At today’s OGSA call, three issues were on the table for our team.
The first two were not discussed. Hiro and Jun have an action item to discuss default components. Steve Newhouse has an action item to document his usage cases for conversation.
The final topic was the issue of CDL lazy references being overrideable by a user of the system. According to the CDL specification, the cdl:lazy attribute can have a Boolean value. Thus, this allows a template to have a property with cdl:lazy equal to true. In a CDL file which imports or extends from this template, the appropriate property can set the attribute value to false, and then provide a value for the property. This explanation was sufficient for the OGSA team to clarify the successful handling of this usage case.
