RE: [uddi-spec] Namespace management (corrected spelling)

[Matthew Dovey <matthew.dovey@las.ox.ac.uk>]

This sounds like the problem space that metadata registries and ISO
11179 aim to address (see http://www.schemas-forum.org/ for a EU project
in this area).

I'm pretty sure that this isn't a question that UDDI has attempted to
tackle. I'm not entirely sure whether it is a question that UDDI should
tackle - my undertanding is that UDDI is a directory of WebServices
rather than a universal directory for everything Web/WebService related
(but that's just my opinion)

Imagine an organisation where 25 departments are creating different XML
documents and formalise them with all sorts of documentation including
XML
Schemas. How do they ensure that the new namespace ID they've just come
up
with is not already used somewhere else within the organisation?
Sure, they can write a 25 page guide how to name their namespaces (if
they
can't they email me and I'll write one for them :), but it's hard to
reinforce anyway.

Can one do it using available UDDI means at the moment?
I don't think so, but I can be wrong. Please correct me.
