[ogsa-bes-wg] Attempted distillation of "Questionsandpotential changes to BES, as seen from HPC Profile point-of-view"

[Marvin Theimer]

So to summarize...

----------------
There are four implementation options that should be supported by the
spec for obtaining public state data:

1) WS-Transfer,
2) WSRF,
3) public state accessor operations,
4) basic interop.

An accessor operation for obtaining the activity status MUST be included
in each of the above implementation options.

Official QNames SHALL be defined for options 1-3.

The GetInteropData operation MUST return a list of QNames that
represents which of the above options is supported. An empty list
implies that ONLY option #4 is available.
----------------

We should also define what port types option #2 implies or break it up
into three different options for each of the three port types used for
resource property queries in WSRF (wsrp:GetResourceProperty,
wsrp:GetMultipleResourceProperties, and wsrp:QueryResourceProperties).

This sounds good to me.  I presume that "basic interop" means just the two accessor operations for activity status and complete activity infoset?

Marvin.
