Re: [uddi-spec] Use of UDDI.org as a means of promoting TC, UBR, Std Group and Consortium tModels and Value Sets
Luc,

 

We have no control over the overview document, it's 
format, content and availability.

I think it is quite important to single out "How to 
obtain the taxonomy" bit and make sure that it is not hidden deep in the huge 
document. 

 

I'm happy to write a brief doco on what should be 
in the overview document, but I don't think many will follow it. I'll give it a 
try.

 

Cheers,

Max

Shouldn't this information 
  (i.e. the URL to the value set) be available in the overviewDoc rather? I 
  think so. We may want to provide guidance on the page suggesting what an 
  overviewDoc for a category or identifier system should look like. 
  

  
 

  
Could you please take a 
  moment and put something together?

  
 

  
Cheers... and thanks for 
  volunteering ;-)

Luc,

  
 

  
I would suggest to require a URL to the source code of the taxonomy (in some format - up 
  to the publisher) or a URL to a resource on how to obtain the taxonomy source code.

  
 

  
Cheers,

  
Max

Many will recall this mail and the 
    ensuing discussion. I took an AR to make to update the prototype proposed 
    and would like to offer this update to the TC for 
    re-consideration.

    
 

    
I would like to add this topic as a 
    new agenda item. Please review either of the Word or HTML versions of the 
    document and offer your comments. If the TC will agree with the prototype 
    and the approach, I would like us to request comments from the Steering 
    Committee and an update to the UDDI.org Member Section web 
    site.

(Apologies for my last and 
    premature mail)

    
 

    
A few meetings ago, the topic of where to post 
    non-normative tModels came up in a discussion; we never concluded this 
    discussion. I'd like to revive it and obtain your input on the 
    following.

    
Background

    
      
As some of you may know, during the course of the 
      v3 spec development, we removed from the spec those tModels and value sets 
      that were not considered appropriate to make normative in favour of having 
      the UDDI Business Registry (UBR) to manage these. They include the 
      following:

      
        
1 UDDI Business Registry Value Set tModels: 
        Category System, Identifier Systems and Categorization 
        Groups

        
 

        
1.1 North American Industry Classification 
        System (NAICS) 1997 Release 
1.2 United Nations Standard Products and 
        Services Code System (UNSPSC) Version 7.3 
1.3 ISO 3166 Geographic 
        Code System 
1.4 ISO 3166 Code Derivation for Business Locations 
        
1.5 ISO 3166 and UNSPSC Code Group System 
1.6 World Geodetic 
        System 1984 
1.7 WGS 84 Latitude Code System 
1.8 WGS 84 Longitude 
        Code System 
1.9 WGS 84 Altitude Code System 
1.10 Geographic 
        Precision Code System 
1.11 UDDI Business Registry Postal Address 
        Structure 
1.12 Dun & Bradstreet D-U-N-S® Number Identifier 
        System
1.13 Thomas Register Supplier Identifier Code System
1.14 
        ISO 6523 International Code Designator (ICD) System

        
 

        
2 UDDI Business Registry Core 
        tModels

        
 

        
2.1  Domain Key Generator for the UDDI 
        Business Registry Domain
2.2  UDDI JIS X 4061 Japanese sortOrder 
        qualifier

      
The UBR's Operator's Council is currently in the 
      process of reviewing these tModels in support of its UDDI v3 deployment 
      work. This topic is long overdue.

    
TC, Standards Groups and 
    Consortium Needs

    
      
As we've discussed and continue to encounter, the 
      TC, other standards groups and consortium need a place where they can 
      collect and promulgate the existence of their tModels and value sets (e.g. 
      WSDL v2 TN, ebXML TN, etc). 

    
Proposal

    
      
The UBR Operator's Council is considering asking 
      the UDDI Steering Committee to post UBR tModels on UDDI.org. At the same 
      time, the OC discussed the need/desire for the TC/Consortium to 
      have a similar forum and thought that we should consult the 
      TC.

      
 

      
To this end, the OC has created a prototype page 
      to be added to the UDDI.org site; please find it attached. The 
      prototype suggests the addition of a "Common tModels" navigation link 
      which displays the content of the attached. 

      
 

      
Please review this prototype. This matter will be 
      put on the agenda for the next TC call.

    
Action 
Required

    
      
A. The OC is soliciting your support 
      and interest for this; while it can proceed independently from the TC, it 
      would be best to coordinate this.

      
 

      
B. We need to discuss the criteria for what gets 
      published on the page; I would expect the Steering Committee to be the 
      gate keeper but they would require guidance from the TC on matter of 
      criteria

      
 

    
As a next step once we complete this discussion and 
    if the TC is favourable to posting such information, the next step would be 
    for the TC (and the OC) to make a request to the UDDI-SC asking 
    for this content to be posted.

    
 

    
For your consideration.

    
 

    
Luc
