3) Progess & planning update (10 minutes)

Update on document writing, links with other WGs, plans for F2F and
telcons up to GGF16. 


4) Format for documenting interfaces (15 minutes)

See the messages from myself and Michael Behrens on 22nd/23rd Dec
(attached)


5) Linking the scenarios and architecture documents (15 minutes)

Right now, the scenarios document is fairly loosely tied to the
architecture document.  Do we want to go into greater detail about how
the diagrammatic solutions in the scenarios document tie to specific
sections of the architecture document?  Do we want to create interaction
diagrams that show how and when the architectural components interact to
effect a solution?  Should the architecture document also refer to the
scenarios document?


6) Wrap up (5 minutes) 

Next meetings:

Jan 16th-20th:	OGSA F2F in Sunnyvale
Jan 25th:		Report from F2F; review of documents?
Feb 1st:
Feb 8th:
Feb 13th-16th:	GGF16 in Athens
