Subject: fyi, ebxml regrep requirements


>From the EBXML Requirements Specification, v 0.6.  I need not
point out that this is an ambitious list.


3.7 Registry and Repository 
The Registry and Repository Project Team detailed requirements and deliverables will:
* Identify the long-term maintainer of this repository.
* Develop detailed blueprints for an ebXML repository that 
- uses open management processes,
- has open access,
- has interfaces with other existing and planned XML business standards repositories,
- accommodates -
* versioning
* metadata Registry
* model interchange (e.g. UML - XML schemas)
* tool-to-tool queries and exchanges
* repository to repository queries and exchanges
* tool to repository queries and exchanges
* repository to tool queries and exchanges
- enables model integration (e.g., how to create an XML schema from a UML diagram and vice-versa without loss or gain), 
- supports Web access,
- includes -
* a glossary of terms related to business process methodology: vocabulary (e.g., functional, non-functional, vertical, message, segment, data type  using TMWG Unified Modeling Methodology document Annex 1) 
* a glossary of terms specific to each business process to be modeled 
* a glossary of ebXML semantic tags
* archives of previous ebXML technical specifications.
* archives of previous ebXML technical specifications
- develops open XML based structures for storing information within a repository,
- supports legacy information, including historical EDI directories (X12, UN/EDIFACT, etc.), 
- stores a legacy data model (e.g., IDEF-1X) and retrieves it back out as a UML class diagram, 
- stores 100% of a UML model (OCL, use cases, state diagrams, interaction diagrams, etc.) and retrieves it back out in its entirety,
- enables businesses to interactively map internal application semantics to horizontal and vertical industry semantics (semantic equivalent mappings), 
- identifies data context with respect to where it is being used in the business process, 
- supports change or enhancement to an as a result of implementation issues, 
- supports exact and fuzzy search capabilities, 
- supports electronic work item proposals in any format, 
- identifies all the vertical domains for each artifact (UML classes, XML declarations), 
- differentiates work in progress to that which is an actual standard, 
- supports existing software and standards that are already in place. (reuse-buy-build principle), 
- ensures changes in repository content are restricted to authorized individuals,
- ensures access is restricted as necessary,
- provides predictable naming conventions based on a formal scheme, 
- provides predictable version identifiers based on a formal scheme,
- provides dynamic mapping tools that automatically retrieve the most current file specification from a repository,
- supports real time file specification retrieval to understand how to correctly parse a file and write out a conformant file, 
- identifies which trading partners are capable of engaging into a given electronic business transaction, 
- identifies which trading partners provide certain products and services, 
- identifies what networking schemes must be used to physically communicate with a trading partner, 
- facilitates discovery by intelligent information agents, 
- supports Internet 24x7 access, and 
- has repository performance levels that support real-time interaction with business applications.
