Re -
Definition of 'Infrastructure' correspondence
This
raises an important question...there appear to be two basic sides to the
output of ebXML.
- BP/CC activities - so
called content
- Non BP/CC - what most call infrastructure (even if
the glossary doesnt)
However, my
belief is that it is not this sort of split (CC/BP vs non CC/BP) which is
important. The split which i believe is important
is:
-
Specifications for the whole of ebXML
- Content
which is built by using the specifications (in reality this means BP (process
catalogues) and CC (Core component catalogues))
The
difference with the top view is that BP/CC activities also contain
specifications and the development of these specifications are interlinked
with other ebXML specifications and it would be illogical to split the
two up. Splitting away the content is far easier to
boundary.
Thus, in
conjunction with the 'where next' discussion...this logic would suggest that all
specifications, guidance material etc would logically go to OASIS, and the
content/catalogues which related to these specifications is performed by
EWG+. The main difference is that the EWG would not be responsible for
BP/CC specifications themselves.

The term ebXML Infrastructure has been used with
different meanings within ebXML. We decided in Vancouver to stick with the
interpretation of the TA specification, i.e. meaning the entire
framework. If we feel we need to distinguish between the BOV and FSV views, we
should either use these terms or come up with new ones.

Subject: Re: ebXML glossary
It probably should be noted, that the definition
for ebXML Infrastructure is not consistent with the way it was used
during the Thursday meeting (in Vancouver) regarding the future of
ebXML. At that meeting, Infrastructure was used to indicate those
ebXML specifications that would probably go under OASIS - that is, Reg/Rep,
TRP, and Trading Partners. The current glossary definition
states that the Infrastructure is ALL the specifications.
