RE: [legalxml-intj-exmndr] Recap of issue on domain modeling
Scott,

 

One suggestion: Regarding #4, if it is a UML diagram, it 
must be provided as an image and should also be provided in XMI 
format.

[legalxml-intj-exmndr] Recap of issue on domain modeling

Here is what I took as consensus from our discussion this 
morning.  I agree with this; Tom, since you were the other active 
participant in the discussion, could you please post back with your agreement as 
well, or suggested modifications.  Others feel free to chime in as 
well.  I will then make sure this gets into the Domain Modeling section in 
the MNDR.

(Again, keep in mind, we're saying what's necessary for 
compliance with the MNDR, not that the whole world should do what we 
say.)

1.  A domain model must be created.

2.  The domain 
model must be one of:  a spreadsheet, a concept map, or a UML class 
diagram.  (What these things are, in detail, will be described in the 
document.)

3.  The domain model should be a UML class 
diagram.

4.  If the domain model is a UML class diagram, then the 
diagram must be supplied in XMI and image (JPG or PNG) format.  The image 
format must not contain symbols or notation that are not part of standard UML 
class diagrams.

5.  Nothing in this specification precludes a domain 
model from being documented, published, or displayed using diagramming notation 
other than standard UML, provided that the domain model also be supplied 
according to the provisions of rule #4.

6.  The domain-GJXDM mapping 
artifact must not reference any domain model concept or element that is not 
represented in standard UML notation.

Thanks, 
everyone.
