While the reasons why UDDI V3 is not based on one of the existing 
canonicalization algorithms developed by the W3C but on Schema Centric 
Canonicalization (SCC14N) are documented in both the SCC14N spec and the UDDI V3 
spec, it is not adopted yet by any other work that I know 
of.

 

Bob Atkinson had a conversation with folks from the W3C about 
SCC14N, but I don't know what the result was. Bob, can you give us an update on 
this?

We may 
consider to start negotiations again, especially since SCC14N is not 
specific to UDDI, but is designed to work in a general XML schema processing 
context.
