I agree they are different yet complementary . As in-
XDI is focused on metadata that specifies
Defining bindings of this abstract API to concrete transport protocols such as HTTP, SMTP, SIP, and XMPP, and to invocation protocols such as SOAP, REST, and RMI.
Defining the semantics of XDI dictionaries — self-describing ontologies for use in XDI data sharing.
Defining the semantics of XDI link contracts — XDI documents used to govern the terms of XDI data sharing relationships.
Whereas :
SET is focused on metadata for artifacts that support use of data being shared
SET UBL / CCTS Ontology is for data content within that domain
As an aside - I am quite interested to know where XDI dovetails with the work of the SDO TC

William,
I think the two are vastly different! Apples and Oranges - both fruit - but there the similarities end.

Hi,
This looks fascinating, but wouldn't there be a lot of overlap with XRI
Data Interchange Technical Committee (XDI TC)? XDI is developing a
mechanism that may achieve all of the goals of the charter as I
understood it, at first pass. I haven't done a write up of a detailed
comparison yet though. I'd like to first provide the XDI charter for
reading
( http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/xdi/charter.php ) and request one
of the SET TC sponsors to let me know how to end-goals are different
from XDI?
Thanks,
Bill Barnhill

I agree with the statement "SET Process and Semantic Model" would be
easily applicable to legacy formants, EDI or Inhouse ..
However, I believe a semantic domain scoped by UBL / CCTS is an
excellent and pragmatic goal for the first version of a SET.

Hello,
I want to comment on the Scope of the SET TC Charter in regards
to the
close/strict relationship with Core Components. I think the
major semantic
modelling work and a framework to describe that is quite
independend from
the actual data representation. A "SET Process and Semantic
Model" would be
easyly applicable to legacy formants, EDI or Inhouse.
I therefore would propose to add this as a secondaryx goal, or
to weaken the
focus, to allow the TC to determine if they only want to support
CCs or not.
...........................................................
For this purpose, first a UBL "Component
Ontology" will be developed.
In the later phases, this ontology will be expanded to cover
other document
standards based on CCTS.
The Component Ontology serves two major purposes:
. Representing the semantics of components: Document
customization
takes
place at the level of individual types and elements; hence,
translation
needs to be done at the same level. When an automated process
compares two
versions of a schema, it needs to be able to identify
corresponding elements
in these schemas.
When document elements are represented as classes of a common
component
ontology, it becomes possible to utilize that ontology for the
computation
of similarities between elements from different schemas.
. Representing the structure of document schemas: Core
component based
document schemas are complex hierarchies including numerous
types and
elements any of which might be modified through customization.
