Unfortunately, the link is even for the TC administrator only, not even OASIS members...

 

I would be interested in more detail, particularly as there is always the danger of "scope creep": although there are plenty of things that do need to be done, "our" TC is about Published Subjects, not about semantic interoperability through public registration of ontologies and ontological constructs...The SCMSC sounds closer to the "SeeBIG" TC idea....

 

BTW: the OASIS members area doesn't show *any* reference at all to SemConManSC of the ebXML Registry....???

Is this not the tail wagging the dog? Surely business drivers will lead to definition of general concepts and requirements, and *then* such generic definitions can be "narrowed" to specific TM implementations...?
