OAGi Context Architecture is taking shape

We had an excellent meeting yesterday to review an emerging architecture document for OAGi’s implementation of the UN/CEFACT Context Methodology (UCM).  UCM is in ODP 6, which is the implementation verification stage of their document methodology.

The project Chair, Scott Hinkelman, reviewed a graphic which shows the scope planned for OAGi’s implementation of UCM.  It is mostly self-explanatory.  The graphic is just below.
