I can clarify: We pondered that approach several months ago (updating
RIM to accomodate CCTS requirements), but decided that it was best not
to touch the RIM, but rather to either (a) create a RIM binding, or (b)
express the CCTS metadata in XML format, as a "wrapper" to the XML
representation of the Core Component (i.e. an XML serialization).

We then decided on approach (b) for several reasons,

This is somewhat different then what I'd suggested in my earlier post. And,
I cannot recall that we've decided on (b) -> maybe I missed that decision
somehow. I am strongly opposed to (b) because it is not our job to define
"XML wrapper" for CCTS artifacts. In that way we are doing something that is
step [2] in my earlier post, which is IMO job of UBL and/or other similar
efforts, not ours.
