Tim,

Thanks, DW.

After all the work we did this last week to review and revise the public
presentation of the ebXML architecture, I am a little dumbfounded to see =
on
the XML.ORG web site a new article that presents the old and now deprecat=
ed
one.  (UML to XML conversion as a component, etc).  =


<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Bob,

The article in question was written three weeks ago now for a WRMC
publication.
(Notice this was also BEFORE Bob Sutors excellent clarification note week=

before last).

Since all such materials that I have routinely get forwarded to Marketing=

and
Awareness, they (M&A) simply requested a copy and WRMC very kindly agreed=

to that.

If you REALLY want to see a dumb-founding article read the one that JP fr=
om
XMLSolutions put in XML Journal.   I suggest you yourself can now also pe=
n
an article, (perhaps with Bob Sutor?) as I am sure many authoritive
publications
would be happy to have your combined insights.

Here's a <snip> of what JP put out - you may want to consider directly
responding to that:  ComparingebXMLandUDDI - Nov issue, XML Journal.

 "That said, this effort is clearly understaffed and the work completed t=
o
date
    seems to illustrate a rudimentary understanding of e-commerce without=

     having actually been part of a real solution." - JP

He also makes many error prone assertions relating to the architecture of=

ebXML.

At least I was being as factually accurate as possible at the time of
publication, and while comments on politics are where appropriate =

entirely the opinion of the author.

Thanks, DW.
