Subject: RE: request for clarification
Stephenie, I liked your Response document a lot. In particular, I appreciated describing things from a business viewpoint. Some ebXML discussions lose this essential starting place and thus get ungrounded. I think your work would fit in very well with the Common Business Process group, whose mailing list I cc in this reply. The list archive is here: http://lists.ebxml.org/archives/ebxml-ccbp-analysis/ A recent version of the common process table, very similar to the table on the URL you cite below, can be found in this message: http://lists.ebxml.org/archives/ebxml-ccbp-analysis/200012/msg00009.html (Watch for word wrap.) Common process group members: click on the URL below and see if the table does not look familiar.

Just in this case it makes no sense or has no guarentees." I've been off the ebXML lists since September due to a variety of circumstances, so I'm definitely not up-to-speed on the discussions. Is it still true that the goal for the metamodel is that it is applicable to all exchanges, not just B2B application-to-application exchanges? I tried to put the issue of responses/acknowledgments in non-technical terms for a colleague of mine, so she could gain an understanding of the complexity that may need to be built into interfaces, and I've turned that into a draft white paper for EIDX. I'm attaching it in case you are interested, but for your purposes it may just be "noise". Some feedback would be welcomed, though. It's an unreviewed draft, and only addresses orders placed by a buyer to a seller. The response thing can get very ugly very quickly when you start to discuss responses to the different forecast types. You are welecome to peruse the list we've come up with at EIDX - http://www.eidx.org/publications/business_models/fcmodl_docs.html. Regards.
