Rolly,
I appreciate your taking the time to carefully review the OXCI EFM
Architecture document. You raise some very good points and I my responses
align with the consensus below. But to respond to the points directly:
1. Service of documents on other parties
In my understanding, the OXCI Architecture is intended to provide a baseline
EFM for court filing that does not necessarily include service of filings on
other parties. It is well expected that vendors will provide other EFM
implementations with more functionality such as srevice of filings on other
parties. These products may or may not be based on the OXCI EFM. That is,
the OXCI Architecture does not specifically support this service but, as
Dallas Powell clearly points out, the Architecture could be extended fairly
easily to include it.
2. Proposed Court Filing XML Schema
The purpose of including the schema was simply to demonstrate how the Court
Filing 1.1 DTD might translate to a compatible schema and to demonstrate how
certain elements would change based on the design decisions. Tom Clarke and
John Greacen may have been premature in publicly calling this "Light Blue".
In my opinion, your suggestions for changes to the schema are right on the
money and should be incorporated in the CF Blue schema.
