Updates to OCCI specification

Hi, picking up the recent discussion on JSON, I'd like to summarize the current ideas as far as I understood them from the recent discussion. First, there was the proposal to put the changes in the right documents as errata. I very much second this, even if we may face problems pushing it through OGF as errata. Thus I'd like to split the ideas into the corresponding parts of the OCCI and send separate mails for them. It would be nice if we could keep the threads separate. These are currently ideas and I might have missed some of them. Please add all ideas I missed and try to focus on getting everything ready for integration into the specification as soon as possible. There are several implementations ready to pick up especially the JSON rendering. Also it would be great if we could get OCCI from proposed recommendation to full recommendation as soon as possible.

Normative changes will likely need to go through public review again, non-normative changes are simpler to handle. Either way, I think that adding errata is appropriate at this stage.

For that to happen, the group will have to document that multiple independent implementations of the spec exist which can be used interoperably (e.g., they can be used by the same set of clients, or pass a compliance test suite). Once that document is through the OGF process, the covered specs will be promoted to full recommendation status. HtH, Andre.

Hello all, I will be attending the Oxford meeting on Wednesday and will be bringing the list of typos and gramatical fixups that I promissd you in Dusseldorf. I have a working JSON implementation now in place in the CompatibleOne Accords platform but I am sure it will need a few tweaks here and there when the specification is fianlised. Sincerely Jamie
