Carl,

Thanks for stepping up to submit this paper. It will of interest to many 
people.

Here are some thoughts on the content:

-What are Topic Maps and what problems do they solve?

-What are some advantages of using ebXML Registry to store and manage 
Topic Maps?

-How can ebXML Registry be used to store and manage Topic Maps?

-How can Topic Maps be used to classify RegistryObjects within an ebXML 
Registry?

-Why is it better to use Topic Maps  to classify RegistryObjects within 
an ebXML Registry?

-What changes could ebXML Registry standard make to further improve 
support for Topic Maps in future?

-What is the future direction of Topic Maps and how does it relate to or 
align with RDF + OWL from W3C Sematic Web Activity.

Thanks again.
