[1] http://uddi.ibm.com/ubr/uddiget?tModelKey=UUID:4A3ADFE0-0883-11D8-B704-000629DC0A53 [2] http://uddi.ibm.com/ubr/uddiget?tModelKey=UUID:7D6EC8E0-0883-11D8-B704-000629DC0A53 So, if you used <keyedReference tModelKey="UUID:4A3ADFE0-0883-11D8-B704-000629DC0A53" keyValue=<foo> /> for example in the categoryBag of a tModel, you are saying that this tModel refers to a technical concept that "is-a" <foo>. You can follow the overviewURL to find out more about this rddl:nature. (If the document at the end of the overviewURL is RDDL, then the categoryBag should also have keyValue="rddlSpec" using RDDL taxonomy [3]). Its does not tell you what format to expect if you try to retrieve the overviewURL. The RDDL taxonomy [3] was intended to say something about the overviewURL. If keyValue="rddlSpec", then overviewURL is a RDDL document. If keyValue="rddlPurpose" or "rddlNature", then overviewURL is the URI for the purpose or nature, respectively.
