Subject: RE: [regrep] Should IBM being working with us on this?


Maybe what we need to do instead is more marketing of ebXML registry repository, with lots of success stories!  The Webinar is a start in that direction!

To help folks understand that SOA already has a Registry Repository standard we could modify the name to "SOA Registry & Repository"

I think we should keep the full name: ebXML Registry and Repository. We
are branded that way now, and dropping registry would drop an important
part of the standard.  I think it clearly says we have two things; a way
to register and a place to store, an important (and winning!)
combination!

Hi David,

Thanks for sharing this interesting news.

The fact that UDDI does not meet the requirements of an industrial
strength repository is probably not a surprise many savvy folks in the
user community. After all, it was never designed for that purpose and in
fact does not even have a repository.

It would be good to have discussions with IBM colleagues to explore
their repository requirements and how well ebXML regrep meets their
needs.

BTW, I am guilty for suggesting that we drop the "and Repository" from
our original name "ebXMl Registry and Repository".
The rationale was that the name was a mouthful. In retrospect, I think a
better name that was not a mouthful would have been "ebXML Repository".

I wonder if it is possible and whether it makes sense for us to
officially change our name now. It would be a clear reminder that we are
very much a Repository standard as indicated in our TC name regrep.

What do TC members think?
