Subject: RE: Comments on TA doc V1.0
Harald, if this is the opinion of the majority, I do not object. I would only prefer to avoid that the TA document contains description of UIDs so many times. /stefano » -----Original Message----- » From: Harald Hauschildt [mailto:hha@mosaic-ag.com] » Sent: 29 January 2001 15:21 » To: 'Stefano POGLIANI'; Petit, John; ebxml-architecture@lists.ebxml.org » Subject: RE: Comments on TA doc V1.0 » » » » Hi Stefano, hi John, hi List! » I like to express my point of view to the UID-discussion below...I » did that earlier during the review cycle... » » The whole ebxml idea becomes much more clear at least to the » (converter-)developers if » the term UID/GUID would be explicit used within the TA doc. » To distinguish the concept of ebxml from other concepts (e.g. » BizTalk), to proof that » ebxml is not just another standard und to show to the world that we » have learned from » the past 20 years of EDI(fact) the term of UID/GUID should be » descripted within the » TA doc. » I agree with Johns comment that "UIDs are going to play a critical » role in cross schema » interoperability and semantics" and that the TA doc should covers » this topic as a bridge between » the different groups docs. » I agree also with John that "others would like to see [UID's covered » by the TA doc] as well as evidenced by the recent flurry of emails » over the use of UIDs"..........at least me. » » Best wishes, » » Harald » » ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// » ///////////////////// » Dr. Harald Hauschildt email: hha@mosaic-ag.com » MOSAIC SOFTWARE AG Tel: +49-(0)2225-882-425 » Feldstr. 8 Fax: +49-(0)2225-882-201 » D-53340 Meckenheim » ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// » ///////////////////// » » » » -----Original Message----- » From: Stefano POGLIANI [SMTP:stefano.pogliani@sun.com] » Sent: Monday, January 29, 2001 12:16 PM » To: Petit, John; ebxml-architecture@lists.ebxml.org » Subject: RE: Comments on TA doc V1.0 » » John, » » two words on your comment on my comments: » » "...I disagree with Stefano Pogliani's comment to downplay UID » references in » the TA doc. The use of UIDs goes across several ebXML groups (CC, » Registry, » BP, etc) and UIDs are going to play a critical role in cross schema » interoperability and semantics. As the TA doc should illustrate » concepts » that bridge several ebXML groups, UIDs should certainly be covered in » the TA » doc. In fact, I would like to see a bit more of an explanation of the » UID » mechanism for semantic translation of XML documents. Clearly this is » something others would like to see as well as evidenced by the recent » flurry » of emails over the use of UIDs." » » My comments raise from the following: » 1.. If CC, BP and CPA would require explicitely to use the UIDs, » then this » may be an "architectural" thing. » In this case I would "move" the explanation of them outside of the » RegRep » since, as you note, it is a technology that spans different domains. » At this » point, I would make a paragraph somewhere saying that, whenever a » Unique ID » is required, then the GUID (or any other mechanism) will be used » consistently and this same mechanism will be enforced by the RegRep. » 2.. If other teams do not need to explicitely reference UIDs, then » it will » be something inside the RegRep and it will be a technical » implementation. » I am not saying to remove any and all of the occurrences of » UID-related » sentences. I am trying to say that this would need to be a fair small » section that does not need to be repeated in too many places. » » /Stefano » -----Original Message----- » From: Petit, John [mailto:jpetit@kpmg.com] » Sent: 29 January 2001 01:23 » To: 'ebxml-architecture@lists.ebxml.org' » Subject: Comments on TA doc V1.0 » » » Here are my comments in Word format. » » Cheers, John Petit » KPMG Consulting » XMLfs Team » Office: 970 728 9468 » Mobile: 312 961 8956 » » » << File: ATT00001.htm >> » »
