[ogsa-wg] OGSA Evolution Policy Statement Draft 2

[Mario Antonioletti]

Hi,
   A couple of questions:

	o Would be good to clarify whether profiles only clarify
          existing standards or wtherer they can change them? I
	  would hope only clarify or restrict but do not change.
	  Should this be stated explicitly?

	o I worry about the statement that profiles need not be
	  consistent with other profiles. This then puts in a
	  requirement for meta profiles to clarify
          interoperability issues between profiles
	  and you get into an endless loop. Surely once a 
	  profile is accepted by the GGF process other profiles
	  should be consistent with their predecessors *unless*
	  they have good reason not to do so. People need to 
	  talk to each other to make sure profiles interoperate
	  at some level.

Also, one typo on page 2 end of first paragraph "later"->"latter",

			Mario
