This is a circular issue. There are quite a few V2 implementations, in high profile products. But with usage primarily internal to user shops, it's hard to gauge the actual pervasiveness of usage. So it's hard to know the strength of the requirement for V3. From a technology supplier perspective, we need to hear that users need the V3 function. That helps us cement V3 into the product plans. That said, I believe there are a number of vendors readying V3 releases.

Hi,
I think we need something on Vendor committment / support also.
UDDI V 3 Implementations seem very slow to appear. Vendors seem to have gone a little quiet on UDDI in the past year, which is probably why the take up by their customers is not really happening. As one of my colleagues just said, it is as if vendors have implemented it to get a 'tick in the box', but aren't really interested.

I haven't seen any either, but thanks for the reminder to reply. If
possible, I would like to see us try to cover the first three of George's
suggestions at least initially, perhaps focusing on one or two depending on
our success and the response:
* UDDI User Experiences
* UDDI Best Practices
* UDDI User Education
I believe publishing useful information about any or all of these three
will automatically accomplish
* UDDI promotion / evangelism
I think George's last item will be so much a part of these three as to
preclude the need for it's being explicit
* Usage of UDDI as a component of Web Services
I would add
* Usage of UDDI Internal Registries to facilitate reuse

Subject: [uddi-promo-discuss] Promotion of UDDI
Greetings to the subscribers to our new discussion list. Let begin by
welcoming you to the list, and by providing some background. When
UDDI.org brought the early UDDI specifications to OASIS, we were
looking for a flexible way to manage the further development of the
spec. The OASIS Member Section structure was ideal, as it mapped very
closely to the UDDI.org management structure we had in place, and
gave us great flexibility in terms of managing as many different work
efforts as we might need. The Member Section Steering Committee is
now proposing that we do more to leverage the structure and to expand
the family of those who have an interest in the success of UDDI. The
Spec TC has done a superb job in progressing the spec. But, having a
good spec isn't of much value if people don't know about it, or know
how to use the technology. To that end, we are hopeful that this
discussion list will allow us to zero in on at least one area of
common interest, where we can start up a TC to work on some aspect of
promoting UDDI. I gave some examples of areas we have discussed at
the Steering Committee in the discussion list description:
* UDDI User Experiences
* UDDI Best Practices
* UDDI User Education
* UDDI promotion / evangelism
* Usage of UDDI as a component of Web Services
Some of this is pretty easy - pointers to exisiting customer
references, or keeping current UDDI product descriptions out on
UDDI.org. But, we could also go for a TC specifically focused on what
users need. And, invite users to participate directly. We've
purposely left the scope very broad, to see where we might get common
interest. We'd be delighted to hear your thoughts, or answer any
questions you might have. Thanks much.
