Subject: Re: browsing vs. searching and access rights
Megan: Your definitions of browsing and searching are quite correct. The onus will be on RegRep to provide the latter as the approach for locating information within an ebXML compliant Registry/ Repository becuase browsing cannot be accurately done automatically by an application. Searching in a contextual manner is the only acceptable access method for an application. IN other words, you cannot just say find me "foo" becuase "foo" may appear in one or more contexts within the registry index. It wouldhave to be "foo" within the context of "GUID". For a human search interface, the browsing is very useful because it allows a classification scheme to be used to guide the user to the correct information. Duane Nickull XML Global
