I hope to do a couple of use cases for how "agreements" can be created to post to the list. It will include this type of thing.

Do I REALLY expect Amazon to host its own ebXML Repository. YOU BET! How else will it expose its interfaces to other ebXML compliant trading partners???!! The ebXML Repository can be a simple as a sub-directory on your Web Server with a single flatfile in it if we architect this all right. Why the hell would you NOT do that so the world can reference your configuration and message requirements - seems like a NO BRAINER. There's a million reasons why Amazon will want the Behemoth version of the Repository. I bet Amazon right now is managing thousands of web interfaces with different sites. If they can do that all through one single ebXML repository layer you will here rocket igniting sounds as they rush to get there. They will of course take baby steps getting there, but once they realize it works - then expect them to quickly adopt and ask partners to move likewise. Good news on the BizTalk liaison BTW. We all need to raise and fly that flag whenever we can. DW. ======================================================= Message text written by INTERNET:dick@8760.com > David, We must be practical here, do you really expect Amazon to query a ebXML repository for information, I don't think this is practical. The repository MUST be an OPTIONAL part of an ebXML transaction exchange, do we agree? I really don't expect Amazon or any other interactive site to change their existing systems/databases/repositories to adhere to ebXML's regrep API. Regarding your question: > Have Microsoft said anything about, or have > they been > asked about, supporting ebXML interchange headers in BizTalk BTW? > > I'm sure I'll get a chance to ask them at XMLWorld in Boston next > month.... I've had numerous conversations with Satish Thatte, Microsoft's BizTalk Framework 2 architect about the possible ways BizTalk and ebXML might work together. I expect to have more news on this front after the W3C XML Protocols activity begins. <
