ebXML Registry and RDF (was Re: UDDI + RDF = ?)

On a related note the OASIS ebXML Registry and Repository standard [1] 
is already committed to aligning our information model and service 
interface with RDF and OWL in our next major version of the 
specification (version 4).

The ebXML Registry TC would like to invite the RDF community to actively 
collaborate with us in the definition of a "Semantic Web Server" based 
upon RDF, OWL and ebXML Registry.

Wearing a different hat, I also lead an open source implementation of 
[1] called freebXML Registry [2]. The freebXML Registry team would also 
like to solicit participation from the semantic web community to help us 
implement a "Semantic Web Server". See the following message from the 
archives on this subject:

http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-rdf-interest/2003Oct/0227.html

I look forward to participation and collaboration  with the RDF 
community in aligning ebXML Registry with the semantic web. Thank you.
