Folks, On the OGSA-WG telecon 8/1 I took an AI to add a milestone/deliverable to the GGF-DMTF Work Register. Specifically, the milestone reflects the urgent desire of the OGSA-WG to have a normative WSDL for classes expressed in the CIM schema. This milestone builds on the current addition to the work register from OGSA-D; namely the namespace and xml schema for the properties of CIM classes. The addition to the work register being proposed is as follows: The DMTF will define and publicize abstract wsdl:portType for classes in the CIM model (February 2006) Each 'extrinsic' operation on a CIM class will be modeled as a wsdl:operation Properties of the CIM class which are rendered in XML schema (detailed in previous deliverable) will be available through the wsdl:types section It is envisioned that some set of qualifiers will be mapped to xml schema and wsdl constructs. The specifics of this mapping are viewed as explicitly part of the work to render the model. As such GGF has no specific requirements at this time but may have requirements as the work product develops. The intent of this deliverable is to make available a set of standard wsdl:portTypes representing the CIM modeled aspect of classes (extrinsics and properties only). It is envisioned that these portTypes will be mixed in with additional capabilities from Grid disciplines to support Basic Execution Services, Data Virtualization and other areas as they are developed. Note: Abstract wsdl:portType refers to wsdl:portType definitions without bindings. OGSA-WG members please give me your feedback and edits ASAP.

Hi all,
Tom Roney, GGF forum-level liaison to DMTF, ask us to review updated GGF-DMTF Work Register document. OGSA-WG already has dialogue with DMTF folks and I think this document is consistent with our on going activity.
Thus I would like to put this item into next Monday call agenda.
Thanks, -- Hiro Kishimoto

GGF-DMTF Work Register
All,
Attached is a draft of the GGF-DMTF Work Register, a document describing the collaboration between the two organizations. You are receiving a copy of the draft because your name appears in the document as having some role in the collaboration. Please review the document and let me hear back from you, either accepting the document in its entirety, or requesting additions, subtractions, or modifications to the document. The final draft will then be presented to the GGF Steering Group and the DMTF Board for their comments and approval.
Your careful consideration is appreciated. If you are aware of a GGF working group not listed but having a role to play in this collaborative effort, please do make this known.
Tom
Note: It occurs to me now that I have forgotten the Semantic Grid Research Group. Listed as co-chairs will be David De Roure and Carole Goble.
