Subject: Re: [ubl] Re: Customisation Document
I don't know if this is useful or not.
We did a project for the Canadian government and realized there was a
requirement for a machine process able serialization. We decided to use
XML and wrote it in a way that would not break forwards compatibility if
more context categories were added.
We added a UUID as a "key" to the set of contexts. This format also
accounts for logical "ands" and "ors" which turned out to be a
requirement as a comprehensive set are built. IT also ties into the XML
serialization of the Core Components and BIE's we made.
After a lot of work and thinking, this is what we decided on.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<ContextAssertion homeRegistry="http://ebxml.my-house.ca:8080";
value="urn:uuid:4a593056-3509-0766-2e7b-4e154030423f" >
<!--Category = ( Geopolitical |
OfficialConstraint |
Process |
ProcessRole |
SupportingRole |
ProductClassification |
IndustryClasification |
SystemCapability
)-->
<Declaration category="Geopolitical" qualifier="ISO-3166-2"
agencyURL="http://www.iso.org"; value="CA-ON" />
<Declaration category="IndustryClassification" qualifier="NAICS-2002"
agencyURL="http://www.naics.org";
value="9221"
commonName="Justice, Public Order, and Safety Activities" />
<Declaration category="SystemCapability"
qualifier="ServiceOutputSyntax" value="xml_schema_xsd" />
</ContextAssertion>
Work to do is to develop comprehensive enumeration's and qualifiers for
each category. We are not happy with using ISO 3166-2 for geo-political
since geography and political characteristics can be decoupled from each
other. In Canada, it happens that the Provice of Quebec is where MOST
of the french seeking people dwell, yet there are english speaking
enclaves within. How can one qualifier account for this? Do we need to
use two qualifiers in some cases for the same category.
A full report is available that fully describes these problems in more
detail.
