Subject: RE: [regrep] Meeting reminder and agenda



People are interested in and are pursuing the registration of ebXML
components and services within UDDI registries.  To accomplish this, a
key tenet of UDDI ism in this case, the ebXML organizations, agree to
and possibly act as the caretakers and owners of their own taxonomies.  

For instance, as some want to register ebXML components and services in
a UDDI registry they should utilize a taxonomy that is well understood
(and possibly maintained) by ebXML-interested and cognizant parties.  A
very simple taxonomy has been proposed within the UDDI TN for this
purpose and the author and editors of the TN are doing the right thing
by requesting the relevant ebXML TCs to review this simple taxonomy.

It sounds like Paul has volunteered (or at least asked) to talk with
those ebXML relevant TCs.  Helping him to accomplish this task is a
small step toward interoperability and corporation between ebXML and
UDDI registries.

Yeah, sorry for confusion.  I should have been better at reviewing my
responses.  Just hope I eventually got there.  :)

I agree that this is an issue beyond any one ebXML community.  I really
think that UDDI intended for me to go to MS and CPPA and see if they
agree on things like the definitions (2.1) and the concepts that
represent their specs in parts like 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 .  Which I do intend
to do.  But, I think the coordination of ebXML concepts that have
representations among various ebXML TC specs (and in other OASIS TCs as
UDDI is doing) helps to reinforce the concepts in all the
specifications.

I do not participate in any of the other ebXML TCs so I'm trying to get
the issue in front of them.  Any recommendations on how I should go
about it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Paul

That's completely different than what I conveyed from your original
request. ;)

As you know, "language" is such a broad term - specific, concrete
examples from the UDDI document and their relevance to this issue would
be very helpful.  It's also possible that this issue is for a "higher"
committee to consider - such as one of the joint committees - as it
involves cross-TC issues.

owning ebXML TCs can and should make that analysis to ensure the intenet
of their specifications is acurately reflected.  But I thought (hoped)
that there has been some coordination on common language between ebXML
Reg/Rep and the other ebXML specification that we could still provide a
set of eyes to consider that part of the UDDI request.  Such an exercise
would help insure that our own specification properly aligns in language
used by the other TCs.  I'm not talking about using the same glossary
(though I think that should be the case IMHO.)  Rather, think about how
we have rolled in ebMS and ebXML CPPA and see if we are all being
consistant.  Does that make sense?  Seem worth while?

the second issue really is something for other ebXML TCs to validate.
But we may want to consider the first issue on ebXML naming conventions.
I am in the process of trying to get these questions in front of the
ebXML MS and CPPA TCs as well.
