RE: Notation to support BPSS

[LONJON Antoine <alonjon@mega.com>]

Dear all,

This proposal is a second response to Jean-Jacques Dubray document about
BPSS notation, after he sent his comments back.
We intend to have the proposal as open as possible. It handles at the same
time a UML notation and an Extended notation.
Some comments are also included concerning the computation of
BusinessTransaction end-result.
According to us, the way one see end-result will drive the debate on what
has to be showned in a Transaction diagram.

Waiting for your comments,
Antoine

This certainly highlights the urgency of the need.  Thanks for sharing this 
with us, Tony.  In the longer run, the BP group should discuss whether 
notation is a distinct work item.  (I think this affects bindings with UMM, 
and so is not something to be handled casually.)  For the short term, I am 
very interested in this work and, as might others on this list, would be 
happy to participate in immediate efforts to review and refine the proposed 
notation.   Jamie Clark
