Look for "Using UDDI to find ebXML Registry/Repository"
in http://ebxml.org/specs/index.htm#reference_materials.

Basically what is being suggested in the above document is
to use UDDI as white or yellow page for finding ebXML 
reg/rep.

ebXML reg/rep has the following features that UDDI does not.

-it is both registry and repository
-it can let users to save user-defined data types
-it supports much richer information model (i.e.
association)
-it supports much richer registry operations (grouping,
associating, etc.)
-it uses ebXML Message Service which support reliable and
 secure message delivery
-it supports much more sophiscated query model such as
filtered query
-it supports both asynchronous and synchronous model
-it supports lifecycle management of registry objects
