TPAML
=====
My take on the TPAML is that it is an external representation (in XML) of
data that needs to be associated with service (e.g. a purchase order
processing service) before that service can be used. Let's call this
"service policy data". It includes things like timeout information, the
start and end documents sent and other pieces of information.

This means that both of the parties involved in the service (the
organization requesting the service and the organization that is carrying
out the service) both need to agree the service policy data before the
service can be used and hold it in a "trading partner agreement".

ebXML TP&R group needs to develop standard representations of these "TPAs"
to help realize interoperability.

The best way, to my mind, for the group to develop this type of information
is as follows:
1. Develop the message headers, etc that we need to develop as well as some
of the processes that make use of them such as reliable messaging and
security, then
2. Identify the data that must be held about those services to support these
message headers and processes as well as
3. Using IBM's TPAML as an input to make sure nothing is lost, then
4. Define business processes that involve swapping of documents that enable
the TPAs to be discovered and then agreed
5. Develop external representations in XML of the data that must be
exchanged to support those processes.

On ICE - John I, do you plan to include this in your evaluation?

Hi David and others

1. How does the following work:

http://www-4.ibm.com/software/developer/library/tpaml.html

relate to the work efforts within the transport team?

2. I would like to add the Information and Content Exchange (ICE) protocol
to
the list of business protocols which should be analysed
(http://www.idealliance.org/ice/default.htm).

Information & Content Exchange (ICE), is a protocol designed to
significantly
reduce the cost of doing business online and increase the
                       value of business relationships by facilitating the
controlled exchange and management of electronic assets between networked
partners
                       and affiliates. Applications based on ICE will enable
companies to easily construct syndicated publishing networks, Web
superstores,
and
                       online reseller channels by establishing
Web-site-to-Web-site information networks. The ICE specification provides
businesses with an
                       XML-based common language and architecture that will
facilitate the process of automatically exchanging, updating, supplying and
                       controlling assets in a trusted fashion (building on
OPS/P3P) without manual packaging or knowledge of remote Web site
structures.
For
                       consumer Web sites, end users benefit from more
complete
and easier to use Web destinations that reduce the frustration of having to
                       surf through many inadequate, narrowly-focused Web
sites
in order to find what they need.

3. When does the transport team meet on a regular basis? I could not attend
the
Orlando meeting since I was attending an ICE Authoring Group meeting the
same
week. I would like to attend these meetings.

Regards,
Erik J Leckner
