Agenda
1. IPR
Noted.

2. Agenda Bash
Bashed.

3. Application Template Discussion
* Application Identifier: A property of the application or a property of a site?
Consensus to make the application a property of the site.

* Should the JSDL application name and version elements be used?
The definition of these element seems unclear. Proposals to add an ApplicationURI element to contain this... or overload this string into the application name and move away from the URI model. DRMAA has the notion of an application name - intended for the local site to provide details.
Consensus to make the JSDL Application Name & Version elements with no particular unique naming model in the Application Name.

* Discovery - Should the application list be kept somewhere else?
As we are moving away from the URI this cannot be used. But a URI describing that fact that the Application Template is supported is still needed.
Consensus: Use extensibility in Factory Resource Attributes document to place in the JSDL:Application (with child elements) in a ApplicationTemplates wrapper element.

* Invocation - What must the user still provide & what are they expecting the service provider to mandate?
Goal to allow the user to specify as little as possible. If there is a clash... then the service provider takes precedence. If the user specifies a value that the service provider does not like then a fault can be generated.
A lot of these will be implementation specific - a site may have its own model as to how to deal with provided elements.
Arguments & Environment variables need to be cumulative - but with the system provide able to override or push back through a fault.
