Subject: Re: [regrep] Meeting reminder and agenda


That's ok Paul. That's why I'm trying to help.

I think this should be done simply by referring to the latest version of
each spec, whether they are under OASIS or UN/CEFACT. I personally don't
see any need for you to "get the issue in front of other ebXML TC's" if
all you are trying to do is verify the definitions in the UDDI document.

As for a consistent ontology between specifications, I personally see
that as an issue that (with all due respect) is outside of your scope,
and should be raised to the propery "higher authorities".  I would
recommend you do that as soon as possible, and step out of the way. :)

I really think that UDDI intended for me to go to MS and CPPA and see if they agree on things like the definitions (2.1) and the concepts that represent their specs in parts like 2.2.3 and 2.2.4 .  Which I do intend to do.  But, I think the coordination of ebXML concepts that have representations among various ebXML TC specs (and in other OASIS TCs as UDDI is doing) helps to reinforce the concepts in all the specifications.

Now, the owning ebXML TCs can and should make that analysis to ensure the intenet of their specifications is acurately reflected.  But I thought (hoped) that there has been some coordination on common language between ebXML Reg/Rep and the other ebXML specification that we could still provide a set of eyes to consider that part of the UDDI request.  Such an exercise would help insure that our own specification properly aligns in language used by the other TCs.  I'm not talking about using the same glossary (though I think that should be the case IMHO.)  Rather, think about how we have rolled in ebMS and ebXML CPPA and see if we are all being consistant.  Does that make sense?  Seem worth while?

However, UDDI believes that the ebXML community is the proper owner of such a taxonomy and changed the tModel Keys to create an ebXML namespace if you will.

But we may want to consider the first issue on ebXML naming conventions.  I am in the process of trying to get these questions in front of the ebXML MS and CPPA TCs as well.

The UDDI TC is preparing a Technical Note on UDDI as a registry for ebXML components, and the TC would like our input on a Namespace and URLs associated with the Note.  The document is undergoing some editing, but I've attached a recent version.
