[Cloud] Minutes posted from today's Cloud Imaging WG concall

[Ira McDonald]

Hi Randy,

My mistake here.

When I wrote all the original System, Service, Subunit, etc. classes for
PWG SM 2.0 schema in the PWG WIMS project, I wrote only WSDL 2.0.

I mistakenly thought that Pete has been releasing WSDL 2.0 since then.

If we issued PWG SM 2.0 XML Schema w/ WSDL 2.0, a *lot* of the
heavy lifting for REST and other bindings would be done.

Cheers,
- Ira
