Subject: [soa-rm] Comment on Glossary
Working Draft Editors and TC Members,
While recognizing the disclaimer in Appendix A of
Working Draft 10 of the OASIS SOA-RM Specification stating that this is still a
work in progress (and why I'm not submitting an issue to the issues list),
I did want to share an extract of the latest SysML Partners submission of the
Systems Modeling Language (SysML) specification to the OMG's UML for Systems
Engineering RFP on this very subject. The passage in the spec reads
as follows:
"Note: SysML v. 0.9 reviewer feedback found the
previous version of this glossary to contain many definitions that were not
meaningful to practicing system engineers, and numerous others that were
inconsistent with the normative part of this specification, as well as itself.
Consequently, the glossary is being rewritten so that all definitions will be
meaningful to domain experts, and are consistent with the rest of the
specification. The updated glossary will be included in the SysML v. 1.0 beta
update."
Other specification communities are clearly
struggling with this very issue and this is just another
example. I thought I would share this in an attempt to help us
reconcile the contents of Appendix A prior to community review (and formal
ratification).
Regards...
