> Greetings,
> Sorry I found myself overextended, so needed to curtail my participation 
> in the SOA-EERP TC. However, I applaud the improvements you have made in 
> these specifications. I am copying the SOA Reference Model TC and the 
> SOA Reference Architecture SC to keep them apprised of my comments. I 
> will start with the White Paper, then address bQoS, bSLA and Rating. I 
> am making my comments based on the pdf versions.
> For the SOA RM TC and SOA RM RA SC I am providing the announcement url 
> that can be used for downloading these documents: 
> http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/soa-eerp/email/archives/201002/msg00000.html
> I have designated errors and/or suggestions with _*boldface and 
> underlined text.*_
> *
> General Comment:* If any of these specifications will start their 
> abbreviations with a lower case "b" as is done in bQoS, then I think 
> they should all start their abbreviations with a lower case "b" as in 
> bRating and bSLA for the sake of consistency, or else the lower case "b" 
> should be dropped as in QoS, Rating, SLA.
> EERP-Model-UseCase-WhitePaper-cd03
> Section: *EERP Technology*
>     * I would like to commend you on the explanation given in
>       SubSection: *Enablers for Optimization:*
>     * Specifically, I am very pleased that "The focus of the SOA-EERP
>       Technical Committee is on enablers for optimization and process
>       improvement rather than on the complete EERP environment." This
>       was an unspoken concern of mine early on, and it puts the entire
>       complement of specifications into a sound perspective. (Note: I
>       didn't intend to start with agreement and commendation. I must be
>       slipping!")
>     * In the second paragraph of SubSection: *Enablers for Optimization:
>       *the parenthetical phrase "(how to represent cost, time, and
>       cost)," is clumsy. Perhaps "(how to represent cost, time, and
>       intended result)," might be better. (Note: the term we use in the
>       SOA-RAF for intended "result" would be intended "Real World Effect.")
>     * Suggestion for next to last paragraph of SubSection: *Status of
>       Standards Process:* "These XML vocabulary specifications address
>       the exchange of information that models the business
>       characteristics of a service, permits assertions or queries
>       related to the credibility of the service and its provider, and
>       the establishment of agreements about the _*use of*_ business service.
> Section: *Conceptual Framework and Message Flow*
>     * First and second sentences in Paragraph three of SubSection: 
>       "Service providers *offer* business services. Each service
>       provider may *offer* the same service but with different bQoS and
>       Ratings." "provider(s) provide" is just a bit clumsy--stylistic
>       consideration only.
>     * Note: It appears that an EERP Portal is required. Is this so? If
>       so, please explain why in this section. This could be more than
>       some smaller service providers are willing or able to afford, and
>       requiring third party facilities could be problematic--though I am
>       personally requiring a similar third party facility in a Network
>       Centric Pattern (NCP) in the Network Centric Operations Industry
>       Consortium (NCOIC) All Hazards Alert and Warning Capabilities
>       (AHAW) NCP in the form of a SOA Registry-Repository for Service
>       Providers and Consumers to find each other, share Service
>       Descriptions and acquire the contact information necessary to
>       begin negotiations for establishing Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
>     * /Description/ column entries for numbers 5 through 12 of the
>       Tabular presentation of messages in SubSection: *Message Exchange
>       Example:* are in a larger text size than the rest of the tabular
>       material.
>     * /Description/ for number 8 in tabular presentation of messages in
>       SubSection: Message Exchange Example needs correction : ...*SLA*
>       Request message...
>     * /Description/ for number 11 in tabular presentation of messages in
>       SubSection: *Message Exchange Example*: doesn't make sense to me:
>       "Service Requester sends SLA Request message to the Service
>       Providers to obtain the commitments from the Service Providers
>       _*f**or those no SLA service in the set*_".
>     * Suggestion: in last paragraph on page 10 SubSection: Message
>       Exchange Example: "We conclude this section with a _*sequence*_
>       diagram."
> Section: *A Guided Tour through the XML Vocabulary Specifications*
>     * Suggestion: in SubSection: *The Three Specifications:* in third
>       paragraph: "EERP Business Rating of Services Specification is an
>       XML vocabulary for information exchange on business
>       _*credibility*_, reliability and reputation of the service
>       providers. The _*credibility*_, reliability and reputation..."
>     * Suggestion: in SubSection: *The Three Specifications:* in
>       paragraph four "...and to select _*an*_ optimal end-to-end solution."
>     * Suggestion: in SubSection: *The Three Specifications:* in
>       paragraph five "...EERP Business Service Level Agreement for
>       *(BSLA)*" should reflect the resolution of the *General Comment*
>       above. Also the words "and evaluate" are in a different font for
>       no apparent reason, so should be changed to match the style of the
>       rest of the paragraph.
>     * Suggestion: in SubSection: *The Three Specifications:* in
>       paragraph six: *BSLA* occurs again, please follow resolution of
>       *General Comment *above.
>     * Suggestion: in SubSection: *EERP Business Quality of Service
>       (bQoS) Specification and Schema:* BQoS occurs several times and
>       should be consistent with resolution of *General Comment *above.
>     * Page 15 in first paragraph of Section: *EERP Business Service
>       Level Agreement Specification:* 2nd line: "... service provider
>       for a give service." should be "...service provider for a
>       _*given*_ service."
> Note: I did not attempt to validate or otherwise test the XML Schemas or 
> Examples for the White Paper or the Specifications. I will validate the 
> schemas separately and only report if I discover problems. I won't test 
> the examples.
