Subject: Re: Summary of Steering Committee meeting 20th Sept.


Nagwa and Tim:

Please arrange immediately to have the full comments delivered to me
ASAP.  I fear,  based on Nagwa's comments,  that she may have been
referring to the document that was distributed at San Jose.  The new
document was a complete re-write to address those issues.  

I find many of the documents completely unfounded and based on the
discussions in San Jose.  Specifically

1. Nagwa's comments on lack on high level use cases - there are 20 some
odd such use cases elaborately identified in the specification (yes - a
few are not complete however they will be by the end of the first review
cycle).

2. The full functional requirements for each subsequent team have been
100% laid out, contrary to Nagwa's comments.   IF there are any
shortcomings in those,  let the input come from the appropriate sources.

3.  Reg Rep has been reduced to the point where it only described basic
functional requirements and an architectural overview of how each fits
into the ebXML infrastructure - something which we, as a team, stated we
would do back in Orlando.  The Reg rep folks don;t seem to have any
problems with it.  

PLease forward your specific misgivings to us ASAP.  We need to have
this specification out ASAP becuase no other work can be done without
it.  How can you think of approving other teams' specs when you don't
have an architecture to show what functionality they must provide??????
