Sergio,

One observation on your modified diagram....what do you mean by 'Resource 
Model'?

In OGSA, we use the terms information model (abstract) and data model 
(concrete)....we do not use or define resource model since it is an 
ambiguous term.

Ellen

I apologize for having missed the call. I messed up the start time by 
one hour. Some comments to the minutes:

>Ellen expresses her preference for the "three-bubble-diagram"

I understand that the new diagram can be too complex for the purpose of 
the section.
Coming back to my original OGF comments, the main issue was if we should 
state, by design, that 
"advertised capabilities and activity requirements all rely on the same 
resource description" (maybe optional for the managed instances model).
This seems to be the way OGF is taking by dropping the JSDL attributes for 
resource requirements and by moving to XQuery expression against resource 
representation.

If we agree on this, a new proposal for the diagram that maintains the 
simplicity but that shows this assumption is attached

ok, I will work on this

the current rendering is aligned with the current GLUE Spec. We can work 
on adding examples of representation of resources and XQuery/XPath 
expressions



Cheers, Sergio
