RE: [regrep-comment] does ebXML reg/rep support other than Is AClassifications ?

One more case for my "bill-of-material" analogy, where a part has "in a bill" and "has a bill" as relationships!!

Does ebXML reg/rep support or plan to support other than Is A
relationships for Classifications.   Here's a real world requirement from the
healthcare domain (HL7) in a physician's own words:

We need relationships between classification nodes other than Isa relationships.
There are several hierarchical and several non-hierarchical relations which would
need specification.  For example:

 

"Part of" relations.

 

The  "Right Knee" is Part of the "Right Lower Extremity" which is Part of the "Lower Extremities"
which is Part of the "Extremities" which is a "Body Part"

[Another example is Has A - as in Patient HasA CBC blood test result ...]
