Nomenclature issue

The issues that we will discuss on Wednesday of this week are:

(1) whether we need to include in our requirements discussion terms to lump together the various information exchanges included in the use cases or to dispense with such terms altogether and

(2) what names to give to those terms

Those in favor of including such terms believe that it is necessary to use some terms of reference such as filing assembler, filing review, and court record to refer to the ways in which exchanges are organized in the real world today.

Those opposed of including such terms believe that use cases should merely describe the messages and exchanges themselves without prematurely superimposing organizational concepts on them.

I invite advocates for the opposing points of view to more fully present their arguments in postings to the Court Filing Blue Drafting Subcommittee list.
