    All,

     

    We really did not have a quorum for the MFD teleconference. We started
    at three and ended up with five before adjourning. No formal meeting
    minutes will be posted. As long as we were on the phone I did capture
    some comments. People with specific comments will send them to Nancy
    and I. The comments on the Resource service specification that I
    captured were:

    1) On page 8 under Resource Service The clause "There is an
    instance of Resource Service associated with each MFD Service." should
    be removed. The Resource Service is just another service on the network
    and it is not required to be bound to an instance of an MDF.

    2) On page 9 the Signature definition needs work.

    3) Page 7 Firmware is out of scope. It was also pointed out that
    when the Template Service was generalized to a Resource Service there
    was a collision with the existing Resource element in the MFD model.
    The installed resources for an MFD were renamed to ResidentResources.
    There needs to be a discussion on the relationship between
    ResidentResources and the Resources accessible via a Resource Service.
    This will be added to the Face to Face agenda.

    4) There is no required Resource creation function. The
    PutResource operation should be mandatory.

     

    I will be putting out an agenda for the upcoming face to face. Anyone
    wishing to address specific items during the MFD session should send
    them to me.

     

    The MFD Schema and WSDL files will not be modified until after the Face
    to Face. The Scan Service specification will also remain unchanged
    until after the Face to Face. I will leave it to Nancy to determine if
    she will put out an updated document based on the comments above and
    those submitted via email by MFD members.

     

    Thanks,

     

    Pete
