ACS Teleconference Minutes
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Date and Time: Jun 5 Mon 20:00 EDT / Jun 6 Tue 9:00 JST
Participants:
   Keisuke Fukui (Fujitsu) - minutes
   Peter Ziu (Northrop)
   Michael Behrens (R2AD)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Role call, note taker & time keeper, agenda bashing.
2. ACS convergence at the OASIS SDD TC.

    As Tom posted, the SDD TC concluded that it will try to
    keep alignment with GGF standards, including ACS, JSDL and
    CDDLM. My idea as a ACS-WG is to keep providing ACS information
    to them to make sure SDD covers our needs and requirements, then
    after it is finalized, we can reorganize our specification to
    have better alignment with it. My expectation is the change to
    the ACS 1.0 spec. is at a level of name change in the schema
    rather than hashing the entire structure of AAD document and no
    impacts on ARI, the repository interface. The migration of the
    existing implementations of ACS 1.0 should be easy and start
    after the formal revision of ACS 1.0; that would happen no earlier
    than 1Q, 2007.

    All of the SDD TC Document are open to public through the below URI:
       http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/documents.php?wg_abbrev=sdd
    You must set a large number for "Number of Documents" field to see
    whole set of documents. Sorting by column is available on the page.

3. Submission of the final ACS Spec. 1.0 after Public Comments
    We have finished revision of the document, in response to the
    public comments collected. The resulted document is uploaded
    the tracker below:
       https://forge.gridforum.org/tracker/index.php?aid=1696
    We also made replies to comments on the public review tracker:
       https://forge.gridforum.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=592
    Editor Tracker:
       https://forge.gridforum.org/tracker/index.php?aid=1696
    We expect that it will go through the process soon.

4. GGF17 session and plan for GGF18
    I participated several sessions including BES, OGSA at GGF17.
    No ACS sessions.
    We anticipate at GGF18 in September to cover reference implementations
    update including NAREGI PSE, and Business Grid. Mike mentioned making
    use of open repositories to hold implementation code.
5. Updates
    Tom is retiring from IBM on June 9th. He will be sending his resignation
    notice of ACS-WG co-chair. At this moment that we have finalized our
    ACS Spec. 1.0, we don't need to fill his position immediately.
    (Tom's resignation notice was posted to acs-wg on Jun 8.)
6. Wrap up, Next meeting(5 min)
    From now on, we will focus on the reference implementation related
    activity, including research/supporting work or recruiting the new
    projects .
    Next meeting was not scheduled. Separate notice will be posted on demand.
