Subject: RE: [uddi-spec] ebXML TN question
Paul, The author's intentions in drafting the ebXML TN, if I correctly read them, were to show how supported implementations of UDDI can be leveraged to advance the adoption of ebXML-based B2B interoperability. Therefore, the TN's assumption is that no suitable ebXML reg/rep implementation is available and it is not useful to publish ebRS endpoints to UDDI. The TN was reviewed by the ebXML community, which did not raise this issue in their input. The difference between ebRS interfaces and other ebXML framework artifacts I see is in ebRS being very much a type of artifact (a Web service) that UDDI is really made to manage, unlike the registrations of other ebXML framework artifacts. That makes it rather straightforward to publish ebRS endpoints to a UDDI registry, especially since UN/CEFACT and OASIS endorsed a Sun/IBM white paper [http://www.ebxml.org/specs/rrUDDI.pdf] on this very topic back in 2001. If there is an omission with respect to the use case you are referring to, it is one on the part of the OASIS ebXML Reg/Rep TC, which has not pursued the publication of their well-known tModels to the UBR. In the long term, I look forward to the outcome of the work being done on ebSOA, which I expect will further bind ebXML to Web services technologies.

I would think that it would also include RS for Registry Service. Looking at ebRS 2.0 [2], Figure 4, it defines two bindings to a registry service: a SOAP interface and an ebXML Messaging interface. I would like to use UDDI to discover ebXML Registries, but the TN does not tell me how to register them in UDDI. The TN only addresses publishing CPPA, MS, and BPSS There is WSDL for the SOAP binding [4] to an ebXML Registry [3], but I found no wsdlSpec tModel in UBR whose key could be used in a find_binding tModelBag to discover ebXML registries. Did the TN intentionally omit this use case? It would be nice to use UDDI to discover ebXML registries, then use the ebXML registry to find CPPA, MS, and BPSS. It seems like the GIS industry is leaning toward ebXML Registries [5] for publishing of GIS services (WMS, WFS, ...).
