Folks, Here's what I have done to create version 9. 1) Accepted a number of edits from Ian. 2) Changed the terminology of our functional use cases, calling them instead capabilities. 3) Extracted from the OGSA Use Cases document their collection of capability requirements, see Table 1. I did a few tweaks on these to align them with our capabilities (what were before functional use cases). 4) Added a new able 3 listing all the capabilities not covered by our current simplified road map. We can expand or contract tables 1 and 3. and Table 3 needs more content before we can go to press, but this is the Gap analysis, so it should not be a problem. Next Steps: A) Joel has the pen on improving the readability of table 2. B) Chris has point on the Gap analysis, so look over Table 1 and 3 and send Chris suggestions for i - Additional capabilities for both tables ii - Content for the Specifications column of table 3. C) Sometime this week Joel will pass the pen to Chris. D) I will take the pen back on January 12 (EOD Pacific time) -- Take care: Dr. David Snelling < David . Snelling . UK .
