RE: Next steps and publicity for ebXML Registry v3.0 Standards!

["Breininger, Kathryn R" <kathryn.r.breininger@boeing.com>]

Thanks Carol,
Here is a listing of enhancements and new functionality:

1. Registry federation and federated queries, which enable clients to
discover information stored in any of multiple federated registries
through one search. 

2. Utilizes the OASIS SAML 2.0 specifications for identity management,
authentication and single sign on across the members to meet the needs
for security in a federated environment

3. The OASIS XACML 1.0 standard is leveraged to provide access control
policies and OASIS WSS SOAP Message Security 1.0 is used to secure the
registry's SOAP protocol using digital certificates.

4. Extensible service interfaces and protocols are defined as plugins to
an ebXML Registry that provide content cataloging services and content
validation services.

5. Provides managed version control through the registry.  

6. A new HTTP binding to the ebXML Registry Services interfaces is
defined using a REST style architecture. This enables any content or
meta data in the registry to be accessible over an HTTP URL using a
standard web browser.  

7. A Parameterized Stored Query feature allows a complex query to be
stored in the registry in parameterized form. To invoke the query, the
client provides some or all of the query parameters, usually using a web
form to fill in the parameters and submit the query. 

8. Other query improvements include iterative queries, content based
queries, and improved filter query syntax.

9. Subscriptions may be created by the user for content-based event
notification of specific events of interest. Notification is sent to a
web service or an email address.  

10. Additional new features include extensibility of registry protocol
for defining new types of requests and responses, incorporation of user
defined domain specific taxonomies, and the ability to group related
content artifacts in packages

Contacts for implementation endorsements are:

We may also have some additional contacts for user stories and
endorsements.  I will send as soon as we receive additional names.

Thanks for your help!

Kathryn,
Thanks for your kind words on the Symposium. It was a lot of fun. 

We covered ebXML Registry's approval in OASIS News last week, but we
need to discuss what more we can do. Can you give me an idea of the
enhancements from the last version? Are there new features/functionality
that an editor might be able to grasp and write about? Can we fortify
the approval news with any significant user stories or endorsements?

(Robin can respond directly regarding his coverage.)

Thanks,
Carol

Hi Jamie and Carol,
Now that the ebXML Registry v3.0 specs have been approved as OASIS
standards, what is the next step?  Jamie, I believe we need to change
the title page and upload again to reflect the new status, or do you do
that?  What else do we need to do?

Carol,
How can we help publicize the move to Standards?  Will this be covered
in Robin Cover's articles or in other OASIS news?  Will there be
additional PR possibilities for promoting visibility of the v3.0
Standards?

Looking forward to working with both of you to promote this work!  

And thanks again for all the work in setting up and conducting the OASIS
Symposium!  You should all be taking a few days of much deserved rest
after that!
