Thats the one i was mainly thinking about.

"wait until it reaches OASIS" is one option but it doesn't seem ideal as it
means it could take quite some time before Tuscany can implement some of the
new features.

The other end of the spectrum is to say we fine with the OSOA way of "OSOA
provides means for providing feedback and means for joining as a supporter
for access to some non-public materials", that doesn't seem ideal to me
either as it doesn't seem right for an Apache project to be implementing
something where only a select group have access to the design docs.

I don't know the answer, I think the main thing is we've shown we understand
the issue, have reached some consensus, and are clear about whats happening.
I'd be more comfortable with Tuscany only implementing OSOA things when
there's a draft published publicly, but even that isn't perfect as it takes
sometime for drafts to get published publicly (lets hope there's an example
of this imminently).

What do others think?

   ...ant


My 2c:

- Work on OSOA public drafts.

- Push OSOA to publish drafts quickly when the Tuscany user+developer community is asking for it (a draft of a transaction policy just got published for example [1], I hope we can get implemented in Tuscany soon as several users have been asking for transaction support).

- Work on ongoing OASIS work as it's public.

Thoughts?
