Subject: Call Tomorrow

Hello All,

As 
many of you know, throughout the ebXML effort Len Gallagher from NIST had raised 
serious concerns regarding the ebXML information model and services.  Most 
of these issues were raised prior to our ebXML meeting in Vancouver.  At 
that meeting, the committee decided to defer resolution on many of these issues 
until after Phase I.  So here we are in Phase II.  

As those 
who attended the Vancouver meeting know, Farrukh Najmi (and others) had serious 
concerns regarding many of Len's issues.    It became apparent to 
me that some benefit may be derived if I put Len and Farrukh  in a room for 
a day or so to discuss Len's issues.   So we did just that. 

Last week Len, Farrukh, Nikola Stojanovic, and I met for a day and a 
half to discuss Len's recurring issues.  The meeting was extremely 
productive in that many issues were resolved to all parties' satisfaction (sort 
of).   The attached file represents two proposals for changing the 
information model and inheritance diagrams for the RIM.  (We additionally 
started a list of bugs that were identified during the discussion.  I'll 
provide that in a separate message.)

Please recognize that the attached 
documents do not represent consensus of the OASIS/ebXML Registry TC.  
Currently the attached documents are based on the opinions of 3 TC 
members.  (My role was more of a facilitator than a TC member.)  We 
will discuss these proposals during the conference call tomorrow.  These 
proposals will be accepted only if we achieve positive consensus within the 
TC.

I have a number of other items for the agenda; I'll try and send you 
email regarding them before the meeting.

Call-in information:  
NOTE: THIS NUMBER IS DIFFERENT THAN THE LAST CALL.
