Last week after BES call I sent to Darren Pulsipher and Mark Morgan the general container model section to be added as an appendix to the BES document (there wasn't a tracker I could attach that section to in gridforge).
I haven't heard anything back on this and don't see it incorporated in version 22.
I assume someone will incorporate this?  I've attached it again to this email.  It will need to be reviewed to see if changes are needed given the numerous revisions to the BES doc.

[ogsa-bes-wg] v23 of BES draft





Hi;

My apologies for getting this draft out so late -- it's been another week of "agenda bending interruptions".  In any case, enclosed is a revised version of the BES draft that includes a full exposition of the extensible state model concept as well as a refactoring of the two port-types so that attribute information and its retrieval are now part of the BES-Factory port-type.  This was in response to the decision that there should be a "sys admin" port-type and an "ordinary users" port-type and that obtaining information about the state of a BES and its activities is something that ordinary users do and not just sys admins.

Marvin.
