Agenda

  1. Review old action items
  2. Group API Data Structures and Operations
  3. Permissions API Data Structures and Operations
    1. findGroups/search filter
    2. Open questions
    3. Comments from COmanage Int'l Call
      1. enum immediacy may be too complicated for the default/simple case
      2. COIP is using AFS style permissions on groups (code at github)
  4. IDLs
    1. Does wire protocol matter? REST?
  5. What else before prototyping?
    1. Review Group API TODO

Notes

  1.  Subject type was dropped from I2 subject API because subject ID and source ID will uniquely identify a subject
  2. Subject type is basically a namespace qualifier
  3. Review of Permissions, Groups (see AIs for changes)
  4. Is findGroups() search syntax too complicated?
  5. Is enum immediacy too complicated?
    1. Reasonable default, and some stuff may need it (inc potentially COmanage) to determine unassignability or how a membership came to be
  6. (CORBA) IDL vs WSDL vs Thrift vs REST API
    1. Do we want to specify the wire protocol or use an RPC like model?
    2. REST API might be more useful for javascript queries
