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



There is quite some information about this product on-line at:

http://www-306.ibm.com/software/integration/wsrr/index.html
http://www-306.ibm.com/software/integration/wsrr/library/index.html
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/library/techarticles/0609_mc
kee/0609_mckee.html
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/library/techarticles/0609_mc
kee2/0609_mckee2.html
http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/webservices/library/specification/ws-s
ervregrep/

Does this give enough information about "WSRR's proprietary registry
protocol" to understand how this would (or would not) map to ebXML Registry
functionality?  Some of these documents have IBM email addresses of their
authors.
