I'm not sure exactly what sort of abstraction we'd need re a reg. My initial guess would be that we need to abstract the type of functionality defined in the "Inquiry API Set" as described in the UDDI spec at http://uddi.org/pubs/uddi-v3.0.2-20041019.htm#_Toc85908076. Would we need anything else? Would we need equivalent abstractions for all those these inquiry patterns? Would the ESB need to be able to add/update metadata in the registry? What sort of functional cross-over exists between UDDI and other reg specs in this area (inquiry)? View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3966461#...
