mm1: 1. Business entity: Slated to v3.0 as we are gathering requirements 
on the usage and 'persona' of a business entity (object) and its affect 
on-affect to business processes. Note, my mention today at OASIS 
symposium regarding object != process. We are discussing business 
dialogs and conduct, and are starting to touch on whether or not you 
have super-classes, whether they inherent (and if they should) and what 
that means to a business process.
