Re: [egov] Justice XML Data Model

["Chiusano Joseph" <chiusano_joseph@bah.com>]

Excellent presentation Eliot. Just a slight caveat (not a correction)
regarding OASIS/ebXML Registry:

The OASIS/ebXML Registry concepts presented are not quite yet
"implementable" in an ebXML Registry in a native manner. That is, the
specifications do not explicitly address the registration and management
of  individual artifacts beyond the DTD/schema/XML instance level (and
tags that correspond to those artifacts). If an implementer chose to be
creative with the information model, they could implement such
functionality.

I am working hard to ensure that this functionality is explictly
included in the ebXML Registry architecture in the future. I also chair
a subcommittee (Core Components Review) whose mission is to "Core
Component-enable" the Registry architecture per the UN/CEFACT Core
Components specification. We are currently working toward this end. The
functionality that you reference in your presentation will most likely
be available once the Core Components enhancements are included in the
Registry architecture.

I would not personally recommend changing your presentation, because (as
mentioned above) an implementer could choose to provide this
functionality if they wanted to. That's why I classify this message as a
"caveat" rather than a correction.

Kind Regards,
