Re: [regrep-semantic] MetaMatrix and ebXML Registry

["Carl Mattocks" <carlmattocks@checkmi.com>]

We at CHECKMi call the semantic structure that supports the interaction of
many different  registries / repositories / etc. a 'Compendium'.

Lat time I took an in depth look at MetaMatrix it did not have an XML 
interface and its Metabase Schema /RIM was not public.
