[ogsa-wg] container model document for OGSA call Nov 2

[Ellen Stokes]

Bob,
I'm not surprised there are inconsistencies...I got interrupted several 
times doing the update and I didn't go back and review for consistency 
before I posted it last night.
That said, on subclassing, it should read something like ' you may not 
need to define subclasses...depends on whether the basic container class 
captures all the semantics you want.  In the case of BES, it may make 
sense to subclass if all semantics/operations that BES defines need to be 
advertised and accessed.
I will be updating the doc for the F2F next week and will do my 
consistency check (hopefully with no interruptions).
Ellen

Hi Ellen,
 
The discussion of subclassing in the second paragraph of Sec. 2 is a 
little unclear to me.  Toward the beginning it says "there is no need to 
define subclasses of the Container class.", but later allows that [the BES 
container] "may need to be defined as a subclass of the Container class to 
capture all the needed semantics."
 
Did the first statement really mean something like "there is no need to 
pre-define subclasses..." or "there is no need to define subclasses...at 
this time"?
 
[Apologies if this next part is way off base...some time has passed since 
I wrote the above and I don't have your document at hand at this time.]
 
It seemed to me that the MOF text was not in total agreement with the 
UML...esp. wrt some of the method return values...?
 
Cheers,
BobN

Folks, 

Here's the container model document for the OGSA call Nov 2. 
https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/doc13994?nav=1 

I suspect most of you won't have time to read it prior to the call, so 
I'll provide a general overview at the Nov 2 call. 

The XML section still needs to be written (plan to have for OGSA F2F Nov 
9-10). 

Ellen
