RE: Registry needs POC review

[Scott Hinkelman <srh@us.ibm.com>]

JP and POCers,
The reg spec indicates that the query language syntax area does not have
reg team concencous,
which certainly is the case as indicated. There are those, like myself,
that would like to see the registry
not be bound to any one single syntax, even with the added interoperability
ramifications of this that
would include query languages discovery. My view would be not considering
if a non-XML syntax
is acceptable, but if to consider excepting if an XML syntax *could* be
defined (or have normative
reference to) and used as a query syntax.

thanks,

POC'ers,

As many of you may be aware there was a bit of a religious war about the
query syntax for Reg/Rep.

Since we are now in review mode, I'd like the implementation group to
seriously think if they want to accept a non-XML syntax for reg/rep query
as
it will require the development of yet another parser within our products.

Also, does anyone know when we're going to comment on the messaging spec?

JP

POCers,

The registry team would like to get some feedback from the POC team on
our latest specifications.

Our latest specs may be found at the following URL:

http://lists.ebxml.org/archives/ebxml-regrep/200101/msg00182.html

Please note that these versions have been submitted to QR for review. I
apologize for not having sent earlier versions for your team's review.

I look forward to working with you the following week. Please dont
hesitate to ask for any clarifications in the interim.
