We don't have anything specific yet, but I have a few suggestions. If
we can agree on some of them or perhaps add new ones, we should have
enough for an OCCI WG meeting.

1.) Review of OCCI 1.2 -- summary, late feedback, status of documents,
discussion on changes which didn't get into OCCI 1.2
2.) Implementations of OCCI 1.2 -- short & long term plans, forseeable
challenges, project roadmaps
3.) Extending OCCI's query interface -- in-depth discussion on query
interface extensions, multi-location set-ups, advertising endpoints,
etc.
4.) Towards OCCI 2.0 -- plans for the future, preliminary discussions, roadmap
5.) Filtering in OCCI -- this discussion is long overdue :-)
6.) Transport protocol extensions -- perhaps AMQP, any other ideas?
7.) Rendering extensions -- for the next release, we should finally
get XML into the standard

What do you think? Any other ideas? Something to remove/add?
