• Primer issues
  • Using the OSLC RI seems like a good idea and makes it easier for us to write the primer and for folks to learn via experience with a functioning system. But...
    • How much OSLC RI setup and getting started information needs to be in the OSLC Primer?
    • How dependent do we want the document to be on an OSLC RI?
  • Do we stick to HTTP and representations, or should we show client code in Java and other languages?
  • How should authentication be handled in the primer? HTTP Basic Auth is easy to explain, but, OAuth client is not so easy.

• Are we ready to be final?
  • Still have open issues and we need one more domain to become final

• Special meeting this week to discuss query syntax issues
  • Thursday 3:3PM US/ET - using our usual telecon number
  • See Finalization issues 9-21
  • So far: Steve Speicher, Scott Bosworth, Arthur Ryman, Nick Crossly and Tack Tong

• Meetings cancelled for next 2 weeks
  • Happy holidays!
