HOSTING WENT DARK MARCH 2003;
As Netaccount was acquired by new owners June 2002, that was perhaps
inevitable. SINTEF and other developers/architects continue this
work now, in private association. See Robin
Cover's arapXML page. Let me know if you need copies of
any of these documents; they were LGPL'd by Netaccount in 1st
Quarter 2001- Todd)
News!
Dec. 2002 The AR/AP
model is being reshaped in various ways, in 2003. Contact us
for information.
Dec. 2002 Enjoy this
interview with Richard Soley interview in ADT Mag., on the
advantages of modeling. http://www.adtmag.com/article.asp?id=7027
July 2002 The
co-sponsor Netaccount, ceased business; assets acquired by Visma.
Development of the AR/AP model continues to progress with ongoing
staff resources of SINTEF.
April
2, 2002 The AR/AP project produced a revised ARAP submission to
the OMG, which has now been published as OMG finance/02-03-01 (Accounts Receivable/Accounts Payable revised submission)
available at: http://www.omg.org/techprocess/meetings/schedule/AR_AP_Facility_RFP.html
(or local copy here)
This will be presented and discussed at the OMG TC meeting in Orlando, June 25-29, 2002.
The submission will be updated with tool support for mappings from the PIM (Platform Independent Model) to multiple PSMs (Platform Specific Models), including XML Web services, J2EE/EJB and CORBA, and further harmonised with ongoing work in UN/CEFACT - ebXML.
March 5, 2002 GLIEs
library v.095 released with updated python script, html document
etc.
March 1, 2002 UN/CEFACT eBTWG releases Core Component Technical Specification for Public Review at
http://www.unece.org/cefact/ebxml/ebXML_CCTS_Part1_V1-8.pdf
AR/AP project member, Netaccount, is listed as a contributor
to the Core Component Technical Specification in this
release. The CCTS for the first time, supports RFC 2396 URIs
in its Identifier datatype, a key improvement enabling the use of
Core Components in the AR/AP
submission and the GLIEs project. (ArapXML has, as a
requirement, harmonization with UN/CEFACT Core Components).
Feb. 22, 2002 The
GLIEs project moves towards technical compliance with the latest
Core Components Technical Specification, as described January 21st
below. In
coming weeks the GLIEs library and the AR/AP submission to OMG will
both be revised, to harmonize their objects' naming and
definitions. The
GLIEs in UML
in Poseidon ZARGO format is available on request.
Feb. 17, 2002 ArapXML
Consortium members prepare for upcoming meetings and release cycle:
Arne-J�rgen
Berre, SINTEF, will produce for the OMG
Web Services workshop in San Jose, March 4-7, 2002, the MDA
Platform Independent Model for the GL/ARAP, with corresponding
platform specific models, including CORBA, XML Web services, J2EE/EJB
and ebXML.
Morten Jacobsen, NetAccount,
will present the GL/ARAP to the D14 at the EWG
meeting
in Barcelona Mar 18-22, 2002.
January 21, 2002 The XML
schema portion of this project (ArapXML) is undergoing a major
transformation. ArapXML is no longer an XML schema
project. It is a project for definition of syntax-neutral Core Component
vocabulary for application integration, more broadly than General
Ledger or ARAP. See the Requirements
document.
