Subject: RE: [T1M1 XML] RE: One potential XML mapping for ebXML Core Components
The tool of choice for UMM is Objecteering, because of its open (free) availability to users. The UN/CEFACT Techniques and Methodologies Working Group (TMWG) intends to provide the Objecteering UMM metamodel and illustrative example along with the N090Rev10 descriptive document in its next release. I expect that Objecteering will be the UML tool of choice in the on-going work of the eBTWG. Regards, Paul Levine "Devendra Tripathi" To: "Paul R.

Levine/Telcordia) Subject: RE: [T1M1 XML] RE: One potential XML mapping for ebXML Core Components This is a great idea. I wish the medium of object was XML than UMM. I personally do not know UMM but if required, I can learn it but then what about the tool to parse and authenticate it before contributing it ?
