Proposed agenda with previous meeting notes:

1) LDAP rendering: public comment is closed, discuss next steps
Previous:
> Action: Florido will send LDAP schema to merge into document, recommend publish path
> Action: JP/Shiraz will merge Florido's 9/2/2014 comments, LDAP document and release for public comment
> Agreed that we would publish the LDAP compiled schema at a specific URL
> Action: JP to confirm schemas.ogf.org versus www.ogf.org/schemas/ (prefer schemas.ogf.org)
> CONFIRMED that we can use schema.ogf.org/ to publish LDAP and JSON schema
> We do not think there will be technical conflicts for XML, LDAP, and JSON schemas co-existing under the same URL namespace.
> http://www.ogf.org/documents/GFD.84.pdf defines standard XML namespace. OGF doesn't have equivalent standards for LDAP or JSON.
> Schema will be published as "*.schema.ldap"
> Shiraz/JP review our main wiki page and make sure there are links to all the published schemas.

2) Enumerations: approve enumerations process document
Previous:
> Florido posted script to merge, it's on Github.
> David volunteers to help manage enumerations, including add missing enumerations.
> We need define the enumerations described in GFD.147.
> ACTION: Warren will post proposed job state enumerations from XSEDE
> ACTION: David/Warren/Shiraz will explore Git tools/ pull requests for maintaining enumerations and propose changed enumeration management process documentation

3) Cloud Extensions: Do we have champions to move forward with GLUE 2.1?
Champions:
  Francisco Brasileiro and Abmar Barros from Federal University of Campina Grande - www.ufcg.edu.br
  Peter Solagna and anyone else from EGI?
Previous:
> Our next meeting on November 25 will focus on GLUE 2.1 Cloud changes
> We discussed extensively what we mean by compatibility between GLUE 2.0 and 2.1.
> No conclusion reached and needs to be further discussed.
> We didn't have time to discuss Paul's proposal to add a View attribute in 2.1
> David will explore pricing policies in the context of GLUE2 and OGF SLA (WS-Agreement, GRAP) working group
> Terminology: Call this GLUE 2.1 specification, 100% compatible with 2.0 with additional optional cloud extensions

4) JSON: continue rendering discussions, discuss next steps.
Previous:
> JSON schema is ready for WG review before release for public comment.
> ACTION: Warren will post schema pointer to the working group this week, we will vote on 25th to release for public comment.
> Moved to release for public comment after correcting schema reference URL.
> XSEDE is implementing JSON GLUE2
> David funding supports his work on XML and JSON
> UNICORE implementing REST services and may implement JSON if their is a need
> Shiraz/JP will review wiki page for tools and/or deployments

5) Future meetings
Should we meet at OGF44 co-located with the EGI Conference 2015 May 18-22, 2015, in Lisbon, Portugal?
