Hiro, I am concerned about the data profile, in two different ways: 1 - I want to see work begin on this 2 - I don't want to commit to work that I can't deliver The second of these argues strongly in favour of your suggestion. However, I don't want the work to "drop off the radar". Perhaps someone in the data area can start twisting a few arms in the hope of finding a volunteer?

Morgan' Subject: RE: [ogsa-wg] Draft charter for OGSA Data Architecture WG (promoting the design team) Thanks Dave, I agree that this OGSA data architecture WG will develop informational data service architecture document which covers typical scenarios and detailed service descriptions. However, I don't know what the basic data profile looks like. Even though this WG will develop the basic data profile in the near future, I prefer not give a charter for profile development at this moment. I expect this WG will get clear outline of the date profile within a couple of months and then define the profile, deliberate within OGSA-D WG and with OGSA-WG and propose re-charter of OGSA-D to GFSG. Although it is overhead, but I think this procedure will guarantee necessary consistency between OGSA-WG and OGSA-D WG. Your thoughts? ---- Hiro Kishimoto

Dear all,

Please find attached a draft charter for the promotion of the OGSA data design team to a working group. We will discuss this on Wednesday's call (times below). Please mail any minor comments to me.

Major issues may need discussion on the mailing list or at telcons.

Dave.

Data telcon times: 7.30am PST / 10.30am EST / 4.30pm GMT / 5.30 pm CET
