Ken,
With respect to the metadata issue, we can probably
drop the term altogether. It is certainly abused as Cory Doctorow points
out i "Metacrap: Putting the torch to seven straw-men of meta-utopia" (http://www.well.com/~doctorow/metacrap.htm).
I'd like to move the detailed discussion of the
Information model elements laid out in the Interaction section currently to the
Service Description section. I have a lot more material on the message
level information model and the service-level information model, but it doesn't
belong in the Interaction section. And we can drop the Metadata in Review
subsection altogether. I'm not that hung up on the term.
How would you like to proceed? Would you like
me to capture the specifics of the data-level, message-level, and service-level
information models in a separate doc or Wiki for now and then let you comb
through it? I'm going to start cutting out the material in the current
Interaction write-up right now.
