Trade vs. Contract
==================
We discussed this document.  We liked it overall.  Andrew will add a table
showing how the existing Contract Notification Messages will be replaced
with Trade messages.  For example, ContractCreated will be replaced by
TradeExecutionNotification, with some changes to the annotation.

Identification
==============
We discussed the timestamp issue.  We agreed for Marc to update the draft to
rename "effectiveDate" in versionedTradeId to "versionTimestamp", and to
make it a datetime rather than a date.  We'll review the update at an
upcoming meeting.

Next meeting
============
Next Friday, Aug. 1 - Issues, Party Roles, Process Issues, message
restructuring.
