Subject: Naming Registry Roles
In the course of the security work, we have come to define certain actors in the Registry ecosystem. Here are the actors, what I think is the best mapping of some of these actors to ISO/IEC 11179 (in parenthesis). Please let me know of problems/comments on these actors. Registry Publisher (Submitting Organization) - Does life cycle operations on the RegistryObject Registry Reader (?) - Reads Registry Object Registered User - Has a contract with Registry Operator. Registry Guest - is a Registry Reader but has no contract with Registry Operator Registry Client - Either Registered User or Registry Guest Registry Content Creator (Responsible Organization) - Creates RegistryObjects Registry Operator (Registration Authority) - Entity that hosts RegistryObjects Registry Administrator - Evaluates and enforces registry security policy. Facilitates definition of the security policy Relationships among actors: Registry Publisher is always a Registered User. Registry Reader is either a Registered User or Registry Guest Registry Client is either a Registered User or Registry Guest. Question: Should we adopt ISO 11179 terms where they apply above?
