(I did fix the forum URL below in this copy - my original post to core was to the wrong section under Forums/Specs - the new URL points to "Proposals for new specifications" which was the intended home for responses to both threads)

This is not a formal proposal of any kind, although I used a past one to give them some basic structure. If there appears to be sufficient interest in either or both, then we can make a proposal at some future time. Since there is a forum area for discussion of new working groups, discussion should take place at http://open-services.net/forums/viewforum/16/ The text below substantially reproduces the content. Area 1: Resource Reconciliation Does a monitoring record about a computer system and an asset record about a computer system, taken together, describe one or two computer systems? This is a central issue when the resources described are not themselves electronic documents, be they computer systems, software applications, HTTP servers, whatever. The goal of this effort would be to define a common set of resources, properties, and constraints on property values useful for answering that category of question, so that multiple tools can have a common understanding of the answer when they integrate. Area 2: Event Management What events does an event management system contain about a computer system? Once a human decides that an event occurred "because of" some other event, or that an event "is about" a particular network device, how can another product link to details about the event? The goal of this effort would be to define a common set of resources, properties, and RESTful services useful for answering that category of question, so that multiple tools can have a common answer when they integrate.
