	I'd like to argue strongly against this. As I said earlier, I
think this is good material and I don't have any objection to it being
published as an OGSA informational document. I just don't think it
belongs in a BES specification, which should contain the minimum
information needed to specify BES.

		Andrew, 
		
		Per our discussion at the OGSA F2F Sep 14, I'd like the
workgroup to re-evaluate the decision to remove the (general) container
model from the BES specification appendix. 
		
		The intent of this appendix is to provide the container
model as an 'informational' appendix so it can be submitted to DMTF as
concrete proposal for inclusion in the DMTF CIM and a context for why a
container model is necessary. 
		
		The inclusion of the model in the BES spec does not
imply that OGSA must implement this CIM container model to implement
BES; it is merely an abstraction for a general container model where BES
can provide context for the need and implementation of a specific
container model.  If this point doesn't come across in the appendix
text, I have no problem modifying the text. 
		
		I know the BES calls are generally scheduled for
Thursdays; however, I am not available this Thursday Sep 28. 
		Let me know when this topic can be scheduled as part of
BES workgroup call.
