RE: QRT Request to Review Registry Information Model v0.52

["Nieman, Scott" <Scott.Nieman@NorstanConsulting.com>]

We are planning to have a f2f next week (1/4-5; Thursday-Friday) in Boston
to finalize the Registry Services specification.  At this time it is
improbable that we will have the RS spec before next Friday afternoon.  

The documents are interdependent, up to a point, as some of the service
interfaces "get" and "set" information based on the RIM.  However, there is
a caveat that the "methods" on the classes in the RIM are not part of the
service interfaces, but can be accessed if needed via ad hoc query
mechanisms for complex queries.

We will certainly keep you posted of our progress.

Regards,

Scott

The QR team have discussed our plan for review of the Information Model 
specification and agree to report to the Executive on Friday Jan 5th.

However, we believe there are several areas where the Information Model 
needs to be considered against the Interfaces which will apply to it.  
Therefore, it may be more effective and efficient to review both the 
Registry Interfaces and Information Model Specifications simultaneously.


We understand that your team may be in a position to submit the Registry

Interfaces document in the next few days.  If we can receive the 
Registry Interfaces specification in this timeframe we shall endeavour 
to undertake both reviews together.

I hope this is of use to you.
