Topics:
Discussed concerns with storing state out-of-tree, e.g. in libvirt.  All
agreed that an in-tree tools stack needs to be defined.  Ian and Simon
will discuss architecture of the stack and present it to wider audience
on a call scheduled for Tuesday May 9 at 7:00am PDT.  One requirement we
disscussed was ability to represent complete domain lifecycle including
the off-line (or powered-off, disabled, shutdown) state.  Must be
persistent.

SVPC working group mof files are currently "DMTF Confidential" and
cannot be shared with non-members.  The xen-cim providers implement
various profiles from the working group and use the corresponding mofs. 
We cannot include the mofs in public repository at this time.  The issue
has been brought to attention of DMTF and it appears we are paving a new
road.  Will push the issue with DMTF and we need to have our company
DMTF reps to weigh in.  For now, we can put documentation in repository
containing a link to mofs at the DMTF website.  Note that only DMTF
members will be able to use the providers.  Non-members could download
and build the providers but not execute them without schema compiled
into cimom.

Discussed progress of getting providers updated to latest SVPC working
group profiles.  Jim will start working on setting data classes.  Raj is
looking into computer system and its associations.

Regards,
Jim
