1
Proposal for profiles

• Dec. 10, 2004
• OGSA F2F meeting

2
Consensus so far

• OGSA WG will generate informational documents.
• OGSA-WG DTs will generate documents, pieces of
  which, may or may not find their way into the
  overall OGSA-WG documents subject to overall
  working group input.
• Design team documents ARE NOT official OGSA-WG
  documents until they are accepted into an OGSA-WG
  informational document by the OGSA-WG.
• OGSA-WG informational documents should inform and
  guide the development and refinement of documents
  (that may or may not become recommendations or
  specifications) of other working groups both in
  and out of GGF.

Consensus so far (cont)

• OGSA-WG may spawn off working groups. Insofar
  as it does it needs to go through the normal
  process of an appropriate standards body.
• OGSA WG DTs may suggest specification activity.
• OGSA-WG DTs may suggest profile definition.
• These OGSA informational documents may change
  over time in particular there may be feedback
  from the profile process.

Profiles

• Profiles consisting of sets of existing
  standards and how to use them will be generated
  by the OGSA-WG and those profiles and the OGSA
  informational documents must be consistent
