Hi Everyone, I won't have time to go into the details due to some unexpected tasks reviewing the SOA End-to-End-Resource-Planning specifications, but I want to at least get the basic proposal out today. I propose we specify the ValueListURN specifically for EDXL-DE so that policy-and-content-based routing can be robustly supported with the kind of scalability and security required for national and state level confidence and reliability. I don't have the time to get into the details of why this is necessary. I will return to this with more specific requirements. I also propose we specify a new element, the ValueListURI which can take a URL for EDXL-RM, HAVE, SitRep and TEP terminological disambiguation and ease of reference where it will not choke distribution because the ValueListURIs apply within the content of the message and need not be parsed for distribution. I will stop at this point with a word about requirements. I intend to specify Use-Cases for each of these elements and to derive requirements from those Use Cases, including the one currently being developed for the ValueListURN in the RIM SC. I think we need to be rigorous about requirements and Use Cases. This is something that needs to be discussed in more detail as well.
