Subject: RE: [regrep] ebXML Registry Conformance Specification
I don't understand why we need to define conformance for clients. I think we should focus on defining conformance for the registry service provider. ...and no, I'm not interested in being the editor for this. -Matt -----Original Message----- From: Farrukh Najmi [mailto:Farrukh.Najmi@Sun.COM] Sent: Tuesday, November 30, 2004 9:22 AM To: regrep@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [regrep] ebXML Registry Conformance Specification As I our specs reach maturity in version 3 we need to produce a new specification called "ebXML Registry Conformance Specification 3.0". Learning from [SAMLConform] I propose that the proposed specification define 2 Conformance levels each for: a) A Registry Service Provider, and b) A Registry Client The conformance levels are: 1. Registry and Registry Lite 2. Registry Client and Registry Client Lite The specification then defines a Feature Matrix that has a row for each normative feature in our specs and 4 columns (Registry, Registry Lite, Registry Client and Registry Client Lite). The cells in the matrix should have MUST, MUST NOT and MAY as values for how the feature should be implemented (or not) in each column. If we agree on the proposal then we need someone to be the editor for the new specification. In order to scale better, it is highly desirable that this be done by someone who is not an editor for RIM or RS. What do folks think? Please share thoughts and also indicate if you would be willing to commit to playing the editor role for version 3. Ideally we need the first draft during December time frame and my guess on expected effort for first draft is about 1 week. Subsequent drafts should be relatively low impact as they will require updating the feature matrix based on review and feedback. *[SAMLConform]* P.
