[uddi-sc] Agenda Item for Steering Committed Meeting

Title: Agenda Item for Steering Committed Meeting

The "Universal Description, Discovery and Integration of Business for the Web" on the uddi.org page header is NOT the tag line we want. The blurb on the first page also needs to change. Clearly I should have looked at the site in much more detail than I have as it was put together.

We need to focus the tag line and blurb more in line with what UDDI is - not what its not. I would propose building our tag line from the intro of the V3 spec which does a great job of describing what UDDI represents.

Web services are meaningful only if potential users may find information sufficient to permit their execution. The focus of Universal Description Discovery & Integration (UDDI) is the definition of a set of services supporting the description and discovery of (1) businesses, organizations, and other Web services providers, (2) the Web services they make available, and (3) the technical interfaces which may be used to access those services. Based on a common set of industry standards, including HTTP, XML, XML Schema, and SOAP, UDDI provides an interoperable, foundational infrastructure for a Web services-based software environment for both publicly available services and services only exposed internally within an organization.

Could this please be added as a topic of SC meeting next Friday; Jenna Miller will be representing Microsoft at this meeting.

Thanks,
Luc
