Sheesh, give 'em an inch and they take a bloody mile... ;-)
Ok, I realize that we'll need more than the usual time for JMP,
since this is supposed to be the *last* meeting before final
submission.
We'll start on Thursday nite, then wrap up on Friday by 3:00pm.
At this rate, it looks like SENSE will once again be deferred
until a future PWG meeting, as everyone will probably be quite
burnt out, given the IPP and JMP efforts.

DAY FRIDAY, and THUR NITE]
Cc: pwg at pwg.org
Jay,
I talked with Ron Bergman and we agreed that JMP could use all of
Friday, up to the usual closing time of 3:00pm EDT. Ron is travelling,
so he wanted me to convey this message ASAP, since JMP participants
may need to change their plane reservations. We see from
Lloyd's response that PMP doesn't need any time Friday. We'd also like
to keep Thursday evening as scheduled as well.
The high level JMP agenda is:
1. Answer any issues that arise between now and the meeting.
2. Review the current draft (V0.82 = Internet-Draft 01) and resolve
any issues.
3. Review mappings from each job submission protocol to the Job Monitoring
MIB for that separate document that we'll produce as an informational
RFC. The review of the mapping will also be helping us with the review
of the MIB itself. I'm sure we'll get lots of "Oh, it that what that
attribute means, we need to clarify ...". In effect, producing and
reviewing the mappings from job submission protocols to the Job MIB
will be like a "paper backoff". And I sure would like to clear up
ambiguities BEFORE we publish the proposed standard, rather than
AFTER.
So we can sure use all the time.
Thanks for your generosity in making it available,
Tom and Ron
