[OGSA-AUTHZ] Q on document status

[Olle Mulmo]

Ahaaa... that explains things. Actually, an author can submit a document to
the Editor pipeline him/herself ("Submit GGF draft" in the Editor project at
GridForge). But if you want to, I can take care of that for you.

Would it make sense to "upgrade" the OGSI technology references in the
requirements document and instead refer to the current OGSA base profile
technology (WSRF/WSN) before progressing the document? Basically it's just a
question of word replacements, as I see it the requirements are the same.
That would make the document "current" and "hot" and "useful" and be time
well spent: I see little value in using the publishing process as an
archival service.

Olle,

  I thought the Authorization service document was in your/Dane's  
hands to pass to the editor. Maybe I am misremembering the process  
and I'm supposed to submit it? In any case there is the requested  
tweak from the OGSA-WG from my email yesterday now, so maybe its best  
it hasn't progressed.

  The requirements document is actually the following document, which  
is an informational document that was created when we split the authz  
svc and atribbutes documents. It should progress as well.
