Attendees: Lawrence Mandel, John Kaputin, Dan Harvey, Arthur Ryman Minutes
1. Open Action Items - Lawrence Mandel 2007-05-22 - John will follow up with Jeremy about the copyright question in the status file. 2007-06-19 John: Jeremy was following up to ensure the paperwork for our WSDL4J contribution was done. It's with IBM legal now. I'll follow up next week. 2007-06-26 John: I spoke to Jeremy last Tuesday. He's going to confirm that the paperwork from IBM's perspective are complete. 2007-07-10 John: I spoke with Jeremy today. He couldn't get a hold of the legal counsel yet. I'll hopefully have an answer for next week. 2007-07-17 John: Jeremy still hasn't got a response. Lawrence: I spoke with the Apache secretary through e-mail. If we haven't copied any WSDL4J code we may not need an agreement. John: I think we copied some of the common utility code so we should get this agreement in place. 2007-08-07 John: I spoke to Jeremy last week. He still doesn't have an answer yet. 2007-08-14 John: Jeremy has made some progress and hopes to have this completed shortly. 2007-08-21 John: No update. 2007-08-28 John: Still no update. 2007-07-10 - John will look at CodeHaus to try and find the license for the Woodstox jar. 2007-07-17 John: The problem is with the API jar not the wstx jar. I reported this problem on the latest WS board report. Lawrence: There are a couple options. We can follow up with Axiom to see if they've done the due diligence for this library. Two, we can try to move to the Geronimo StAX API but in this case we'll need to ensure Axiom plays well with the Geronimo API. 2007-08-07 John: No progress yet. I'm going to follow up with the Woodstox and Axiom projects to see what they've done to reconcile the license. 2007-08-14 John: I'm about to post to the Apache WS list and will cross post a couple other relevant lists to try and solicit more information. Someone should know how Axis2 redistributes this jar. Lawrence: It was suggested that we use the Geronimo StAX API but I don't think this is an option as Axis2 and Axiom use the StAX API and we don't know what kind of problems this will create. 2007-08-21 John: I sent an e-mail to axis and commons-dev lists today about this. 2007-08-28 John: I didn't get a response from the Axiom developers. I asked whether Axiom would work with the Geronimo API. I'm going to test Woden with the Geronimo jar and if that works I'll suggest to Axiom that they change and see what they think. [action] John will test Woden with the Geronimo API jar. 2007-05-22 - John will document the Woden decision making and development processes on the Woden site. 2007-06-19 John: No progress. 2007-06-26 John: I'll revisit this in another week after I'm made some further progress on the Woden extensions. 2007-07-10 John: No progress. 2007-07-17 John: No progress. I don't think I'll have a chance to take care of this action this week. 2007-08-07 John: No progress. I think what's needed here is what a new developer would need to get involved. Using Jira and the mailing list. Using the W3C test suite. Open development. Milestones. I haven't had a chance to look at the Apache documentation to see what exactly is required. Lawrence: I'll look at the requirements and put up a skeleton document that we can all work to fill in. 2007-08-14 Lawrence: I posted the skeleton doc last night. Dan: I've started some documentation that I can contribute to this page. 2007-08-21 John: I haven't committed Dan's documentation for build and test yet. I'll probably apply it this week. 2007-08-28 Lawrence: I filled in most of this document. John said he can handle the source code conventions. John: Yes. Tomorrow I'm going to apply Dan's patches including his documentation. Lawrence: Great. Please read through the doc and make any changes you think necessary and this action should be complete. 2007-07-10 - John will follow up with Jeremy to make the change in SVN for EOL. 2007-07-17 John: I haven't spoken with Jeremy yet. I had a look at the subclipse client to figure out how to set the property. I haven't found the way yet. 2007-08-07 John: Dan has uploaded some patches to a Jira that he'll review with me tomorrow. It looks like we'll need to configure each subversion client so this is something each developer will have to do. We may need to capture this in the process document. 2007-08-14 John: Dan created a config file and written documentation on how to apply it, which will also go on the Web site. I'm going to review his writeup and then add it to the Web site. 2007-08-21 John: I've updated my SVN client with Dan's instructions. I need to go through all the files with inconsistent characters and correct them. This is a one time activity. When I'm done I'll put the instructions on the Woden site and send a note to the dev list asking everyone else to update their clients. 2007-08-28 John: Done. I posted the instructions to the list and put it on the website. Look under version control. Closed. 2. Milestone 8 (M8) Status - John Kaputin John: I'm working through the extension mechanism, Woden-123. There's still some work to do on the extensions model. After that it is mainly the assertions that are left to complete. Dan: I've been working on the xpointer. This is when your description element is not the root element in the document. There are several ways to reference an element that Woden needs to support. 3. Graduation from Incubation - Lawrence Mandel Lawrence: I filled out the incubator board report and informed the incubator PMC that we're finishing a few remaining items and will then propose Woden for graduation. There are two issues left after the documentation is completed this week. 4. Development Discussion - All John: I spent some time going through Sagara's contribution. It's not complete but it's pretty much what I asked for. It's a WSDL4J based model. He asked some questions that we're working through. He needs some test cases and javadoc. Arthur: What's the status with the assertions? Lawrence: We haven't made any progress in a while. This is a Sept goal. Arthur: What about reporting line and column numbers? John: We don't currently do that. That would be a good one to fix. Perhaps Dan can work on that. Lawrence: If we need a dependency on Xerces for this we Woden should provide line and column numbers when using Xerces and gracefully degrade to not provide them if another parser is in use. 5. Other Business - All John: Arthur, have you heard anything else about the WSDL maintenance group? Arthur: No. August is a slow month.
