Jim Mosley
 
Don excused, Dave to take notes for this call.
 
Reviewed meeting minutes from Feb 11 call. Generally just an AI for all to continue
working on various aspects of use cases and using the existing syntax.
 
Question from Jim O'Reilley to Ernie: What is difference of Horizontal vs Vertical...
slicing of Flows. Ernie is concerned about keeping them (arbitor, post actions
 "conditions", port) in sync (arbitor). (horizontal slicing with n conditions actions)
He wanted to achieve at times override arbitor without having to keep them in
sync...
 
Review the "Defaults.asc" today. (Horizontal slice approach)
        Jim Mosley had a question on how Ernie's view of flownodes and groups.
May want different set of defaults. In terms of syntax, there is no difference.
May want to determine if we want to have a flow different from the group (which is
the top level member).
 
Jim Mosley suggested that we may want to support state machine AND the 
"natural" flow found in contemporary GUI flow diagrams.
 
No action items recorded.
