Subject: Re: comment on TA specification
i agree with marty, the issue of what is (or is not) an "organisation/company" is too complex and un-necessarily restrictive. this highlights the need to clarify the use of the term "trading partner" (or 'trading party' if you prefer). is it possible that a TP (whatever that stands for!) have a single CPP (and potentially many CPAs). Maybe each CPP defines what the TP is??? the current glossary leaves this open. might i suggest that this is almost self-defining. "A trading partner (or 'trading party' if you prefer) performs one role in a Collaboration Protocol Profile." For example, if K-Mart have a division that deals with purchasing goods from SE Asia and this group have a defined CPP for contract suppliers and other for ad-hoc purchasing, then there would be two TPs. One for K-Mart/SE Asia/contract and another for K-Mart/SE Asia/ad-hoc. - is that the way the TP team is thinking?
