Then you should feel free to be involved. Kris Ketels is championing this
effort.
I'm sure reviewing other work such as a canonical XML Profile as mentioned
in your
other email would be appreciated.........

I'd like to understand the work being done in the architecture group then -
my understanding was that the work in the BP team, especially in the light
of the harmonization with the TMWG N090 model was that they were coming up
with a profile for B2B commerce. I'd hate to see more fragmentation.

BP ebXMLers,
Attached is the current IBM UML tpaML. There is no matching explanation
document, but referring to the tpaML XML specification should help
significantly.
It is a work in progress UML-rendering based on the official tpaML 1.0.6 in
XML spec,
and work continues in this area.
As tpaML becomes integrated at the TRP level, parts of tpaML are relevant
for BP for integration. We can plan to have further discussion in San Jose
concerning this, and interim calls if we think we should.

The .mdl file also contains the 1.1 BP version (not been updated to last
week's version). There is no integration at this point. The zip contains
.jpg
images of the static class diagrams.

Beware that I am also participating in a work effort within the
Architecture team to
analyze/propose UML/XML mappings in the current absence of standard
UML Profiles for B2B Messaging.
