Proposed agenda for Feb. 15th call

Hi all, The following is a proposed agenda for OGSA-WG telecon on Feb. 15th Thursday from 7am - 9am (CST). We subdivide the call into two 1 hour slots. Michel Drescher, workflow design team co-lead, cannot make this Thursday, thus workflow session will be postponed. Frank Siebenlist and Takuya Mori, authors of BSP core, will discuss Blair's comment from *8:30-9am* CT. We will use the 2nd slot for this. See the following wiki page for telecon structure. - https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/wiki1703 Dial-in numbers for Thursday: Free: +1-888-452-0308 Intl/Toll: +(210) 234-7446 PIN: 71815 See more information: - https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/wiki1477 Screen share service will be provided.

OGSA-AuthN-WG forming status update <SLOT 2: STARTS 8:30am; ENDS 9am> 3) Blair's comments on BSP core discussion (Frank and Takuya, 30 min)
I actually have a more general concern that OGSA-BSP-Core and OGSA-BSP-SC contain language indicating that SC is to be used in conjunction with Core. But, there is no explanation as to what this actually means. I can see value in the mechanism defined by Core for discovering a service ERP and public key, particularly if one is using message level security(WS-Security). This provides the knowledge needed to encrypt a request message to the service without having to perform a separate negotiation protocol such as defined by WS-SecureChannel. But, if I'm using TLS/SSL channel security then service authentication, and the service public key, are based on its X.509 certificate. Neither TLS or SSL have any notion of requiring correspondence of the X.509 subject key to a key discovered out-of-band by an application. Perhaps you can add language to the SC specification indicating how these are to be used together.
