I think it's really important to confine specs to their
narrowest possible scope.

I'd like to argue strongly against this. As I said
earlier, I think this is good material and I don't have any objection to it
being published as an OGSA informational document. I just don't think it
belongs in a BES specification, which should contain the minimum information
needed to specify BES.

Andrew,
Per our discussion at the OGSA F2F
Sep 14, I'd like the workgroup to re-evaluate the decision to remove the
(general) container model from the BES specification appendix.
The
intent of this appendix is to provide the container model as an
'informational' appendix so it can be submitted to DMTF as concrete
proposal for inclusion in the DMTF CIM and a context for why a container
model is necessary.
The inclusion of the model in the BES spec
does not imply that OGSA must implement this CIM container model to
implement BES; it is merely an abstraction for a general container model
where BES can provide context for the need and implementation of a
specific container model. If this point doesn't come across in the
appendix text, I have no problem modifying the text.
I know the
BES calls are generally scheduled for Thursdays; however, I am not
available this Thursday Sep 28.
Let me know when this topic can be
scheduled as part of BES workgroup call.
