RE: Positioning with UDDI (was RE: Tactical Proposal: Split V2 wo rkitems into V2 and V3 (repost))

[Krishna Sankar <ksankar@cisco.com>]

Hi all,

	Good points Scott. I also support an effort to explore possibilities. And
of course, I would like to be part of the sub group if we decide to form
one.

	Given the political realities of the market, I am a little hesitant to
declare any outcome :-( Scott's point about "confusion in the RegRep
eBusiness space" is a valid concern. We are facing this dichotomy in more
than one place - JCP, eBusiness registry interaction, capability gaps, ...
to name a few. I also believe (like all of us) that registries are an
important part of the future eBusiness.

cheers

  |I believe that Joel M's suggestion on potentially utilizing UDDI as the
  |Registry function has merit.
  |At the same time, clearly there are issues with this potential including
  |alignment with a Project vrs
  |an Open Standard body as David W. outlines, the issues of the
  |ebXML output
  |spec being more
  |focused on registry as Farrukh outlines (which is not mandated to be such
  |for an OASIS
  |effort I would believe, especially in light of any coordination efforts
  |that  can be established),
  |and what is currently in scope for the OASIS group concerning tModels as
  |Lisa outlines.
  |
  |However, given the current timing of emerging UDDI V3
  |formulation and OASIS
  |in between
  |ebXML Exit and the first TC Specification since then, the opportunity to
  |define a clear RegRep
  |eBusiness environment across efforts has not been better.
  |
  |I believe Joel M. suggested a task force/ sub-group to address
  |this issue.
  |Speaking for myself
  |and IBM, I support Joel M. in this suggestion, and know IBM will make
  |efforts to support this. We
  |do not want overlap or confusion in the RegRep eBusiness space and see
  |value in both efforts.
