>If that is the proper question, then my gut reaction is to suggest that we
ensure that the registry is capable of capturing the Table 6-1 information
and leave it to the implementer/users as to whether they also include the
data in the UML object of the repository. I just think the RIM provides
more control over what goes into the registry than what goes in the
repository.

Paul,
Precisely my point - if UML tool vendors / users want to store their UML
binaries as extrinsic objects - that's fine. We need to make sure that
the right metadata and semantics is captured to facilitate CCTS in an
ebXML Registry - regardless of whether the user has a UML tool or
not.
Republica have shown how to build such an interface using just
a Java component that is "CCTS aware".
Therefore creating the XML serialization is the right way to
go to include Table 6-1 metadata content - and then, once
you are there - then you can build out from that - as the
CRI work illustrates - to include support for the "Big 3 C's".
Thanks, DW.
