I thought that might be it. The general issue of names and roles played in transactions comes up. Master Names Indexes are a generalized business data module. Most systems dealing with humans in any transaction have them. The issue of where these fit in the OASIS framework of standards is mostly one of efficiency. The problem of overlapping HumanML with identity beyond the process of identification is that this will overlap almost any business application you can think of. That is why Master Names Indexes are separate tables and business rule systems in public safety systems. My intuition is that HumanML becomes more germane in a process where self-identification through a process of using reference groups to acquire a vocabulary and a set of behaviors and skills is the domain of interest. That is the domain of sociology. And HR system might be interested in such data and might share a Master Names Index to access it. The notion of involvements is germane. For example, criminological systems pay a lot of attention to the reference groups of an individual to establish where they best fit on the scale of criminality and then use that profile to determine how best to handle the individual. For example, the scale ranges from the criminally insane (a psychopath, best treated medically) to a criminal professional (a sociopath in that they choose crime as a profession but normal in most other respects, so best treated by incarceration with the exception that prisons are the universities of advanced criminal skills and techniques). BTW: Crime is a location-dependent service as well. Criminal behavior systems use crime types to help classify criminal types. len -----Original Message----- From: Rex Brooks [mailto:rexb@starbourne.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 22, 2002 2:02 PM To: Bullard, Claude L (Len); 'Rex Brooks'; Ranjeeth Kumar Thunga; OASIS Comment Cc: humanmarkup@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: RE: [humanmarkup-comment] Re: [humanmarkup] An Institutional Scen ario Human Resources XML.http://www.hr-xml.org
