Subject: RE: Help needed on using ebXML Registry


David

I was simply trying to correct Farrukh's representation of UDDI as a place
to store "products."  I did not intend to make nor do I believe that I made
any statement about ebXML's ability to do this.  I wanted to clarify that
UDDI is a Registry for Services, not Products.  

The way that I read Farrukh's remarks about ebXML is a little different.  It
looks like Farrukh is stating that the ebXML Registry services (ebRS)
specification DO NOT describe how to register products and services within
the ebXML Registry.  I agree with you, this sounds suspect.  If this is
true, then where is this defined within the volume of ebXML specifications.

Joel,

So are you saying that there is no way to define products in ebXML ?

This will be a major problem for business users don't you think ?

I mean, how can business use ebXML if it can't cope with doing products ?

Just a thought.....
