All,

Please remember the WCS 1.2 SWG teleconference on Wednesday, October 22 2008.

The teleconference line is reserved from 11:00 to 12:00 Eastern daylight time 
for the rest of the year 2008:
        Phone Number:   + 1 512 225 3050
        Pass code:              55699#

If you cannot participate in this meeting, please provide your inputs on the 
subjects below in email messages to the SWG mailing list.

Agenda
------
0) Discuss Peter Giacovelli's NO vote and comment for WCPS.  Hopefully Peter 
can attend the teleconference.
        "ITT believes this functionality lies in other forms within
         the overall OGC specification."

        According to the EVote policies and procedures, this group will
        have to address all comments. Two 'NO' votes will cause the vote
        to be suspended and an adjudication cycle will be initiated. Note
        that comments associates with 'YES' votes are not required to be
        addressed until after the vote has been completed.

1) Determine PRIORITY of change requests listed on the Twiki page.  Please 
review the change requests and determine your preferred priorities. The 
prioritized CRs on the Twiki page 
https://portal.opengeospatial.org/twiki/bin/view/WCSrwg/WCS12ChangeRequests 
will eventually be our standing agenda.  Until that is complete I'm going to 
continue using Arliss' technique.

2) Discuss difference between item "6.2 Coverage encoding extension interface" and "6.3 Coverage encoding core (common?) implementation" on the twiki page: https://portal.opengeospatial.org/twiki/bin/view/WCSrwg/WCS12ChangeRequests

3) Processing extension documents to WCS 1.1 Corrigendum 2 (v 1.1.2) that are 
based on change requests which are already partially complete, including:
   a) Specifying netCDF coverage format
   b) Specifying geoTIFF coverage format
   c) Specifying JPEG coverage format (Change request OGC 07-145, needs to be 
updated)
   d) Specifying JPIP coverage format (Change request OGC 07-146, needs to be 
updated)

4) The document template for WCS format extensions discussed on Twicki page 
http://portal.opengeospatial.org/twiki/bin/view/WCSrwg/FormatTemplate
and some email messages.  Arliss has asked all SWG members to review this 
template outline and suggest improvements.

5) Improve draft change request 08-105r1, improving the discussion of CRSs and 
BoundingBoxes, in Subclauses 7.5 and 7.6 of WCS 1.1 Corrigendum 2.  Arliss 
asked all SWG members to review this document, especially those who 
participated in those teleconferences

6) What is the status of the WCS 1.2 RWG work items listed on the Twicki pages 
at http://portal.opengeospatial.org/wiki/twiki/bin/view/WCSrwg/WCS12ChangeR
equests?  When do you expect to be able to provide an estimate of when you will 
complete draft specification material?  At this time, the higher priority 
changes seem to include (some order implied):
* Conformance classes
* Abstract Test Suite
* WSDL encoding of WCS SOAP interface (being worked on by the OWS Common
SWG)
* Multilingual support (being worked on by the OWS Common SWG)
* Allow GetCoverage to output one file that includes all coverage data, not 
multi-part MIME (this is the same as item 1) listed above)
* Allow asynchronous GetCoverage
* Generalized domain (see pending documents 08-008r5 and 07-059r5)
* Allow time-only GetCoverage requests (separate from generalized
domain?)


Cheers
