[Fwd: IETF O&M Area MIB2RMDL proposal]
by Hiro Kishimoto 04 Feb '09

04 Feb '09

FYI Very interesting work on standardizing a methodology to convert SNMP MIBs to SOA/WS resource model artifacts (tagged as "MIB to Resource Model Description Language" (MIB2RMDL), using "Language" very loosely in this context). -- Hiro Kishimoto

Proposal: Andrew Grimshaw as an co-chair of OGSA-WG
by Hiro Kishimoto 07 Nov '07

07 Nov '07

Hi all, As many of you may already know, Tom Maguire cannot continue to serve as OGSA-WG co-chair due to a change in work responsibilities. OGSA-WG has discussed Tom's replacement multiple times with deliberation and finally at the OGF21 F2F meeting, attendees all agreed to propose Andrew Grimshaw as a new co-chair of OGSA-WG. I'd like to formally nominate Andrew Grimshaw as an co-Chair of this working group. Andrew worked as one of most active members since WG formation in 2002 and made huge and precious contributions to OGSA development. Also he is leading one of early OGSA implementation teams and it is another very important contribution to the WG. If you have any objections, please let me know by one week from today, October 31th Wednesday. Best Regard, -- Hiro Kishimoto

***SPAM*** WS-MetadataExchange status
by Blair Dillaway 20 Oct '07

20 Oct '07

During the OGSA EAP session on the Oct 19th, we discussed the possible use of WS-MetadataExchange (MEX) as a way of exchanging a services' communication security policy encoded in WS-SecurityPolicy. The status of the MEX specification was raised. I have confirmed that MEX is not yet in a standards body. There are however, a fairly large number of implementations of the published specification ("Web Services Metadata Exchange (WS-MetadataExchange)", Version 1.1, August 2006) co-authored by Microsoft, Sun Microsystems, IBM, SAP, BEA, Computer Associates, and webMethods. Implementers include Microsoft, IBM, Oracle, Sun, Adobe, and open source AXIS. Regards, Blair Dillaway

by Andrew Grimshaw 19 Oct '07

19 Oct '07

All, Attached is the latest draft of the primer. Most of the pieces are now in place. We still need sections 3.4-3.7, and of course reviews by people. The section on the data center use case is waiting for whoever wanted it in there to write it. The adoption section I'd like to talk about in a conference call to make sure it is a) correct, and b) saying what we want it to say. Summary will wait till the end. A

Factory WSDL
by Michel Drescher 18 Oct '07

18 Oct '07

Folks, in the name of the ByteIO WG, here is the WSDL we used for the Interoperability Factory. It is unchanged from the ByteIO interop document hence needs adaptation to the OGSA needs. It also contains a normative binding we all agreed on for the interop purposes only, as ByteIO does not publish particular bindings. OGSA may eed such as well, but probably can omit it as well. Cheers, Michel
