Title: Please review 'Proposed Service Models for ECF3'

1. I have attached my comments to the eServiceFlow 
description distributed by Dallas.

 

The gist of my comments are that the system does not 
need to explicitly identify when a service hub has been 
implemented. 

 

Aside from that discrepancy, I think Dallas and I are 
largely on the same page.

 

 

2. I have attached diagrams to illustrate how I 
see the ServiceFlow, with and without the use of a Service hub.  

 

My view does not differ all that much from Dallas's 
view.

 

 

3. The diagrams also attempt to illustrate a prior 
statement I made concerning how we define our MDEs.

 

During last week's conference call, 
I said that our MDEs are defined by the messages 
they receive, rather than the messages they 
transmit.   

 

I think that recognizing this 
distinction will help some of our members understand how a Service 
Hub, implementing a ServiceMDE, can exist independently of a corresponding 
FilingAssemblyMDE.  

 

In the diagrams, please note that my 'arrow-heads' 
(the function call's destination) all lead into an MDE.

However, the 'line tips' (the function calls' 
origination) all begin at an 'Application'.

 

There are times when we have previously said: 

xxMDE transmits a message to 
yyMDE

 

When, it would have been more accurate to have 
said:

XxxApplication transmits a message, via the 
yyMDE, to YyyApplication.

 

For example:

Filer's application transmits a ReviewFiling 
message, via the ReviewFilingMDE, to the court's ReviewFiling 
application.

 

 

I am not necessarily advocating that we must always 
substitute the word 'application' anytime we are talking about the initiator of 
a function call.   I only enter into this discussion so that we really 
understand how or MDEs are defined, and, to better understand how 
ServiceMDE and FilingAssemblyMDE can be independently 
implemented.

Jim and everyone,

 

Here is a new document that I 
think incorporate Jim's changes and adds new issues that were 
also on the Thursday call but were too much information for the first 
document.  If this works, we can continue to expand.
