Dick: A lot of this security and certificate stuff is already in the ebXML CPP, though I don't know how inextricably it's tied into the business process or transport mechanisms - neither of which we'll probably be using in our recommendations, unless we come up with a default "legacy" EDI business process.
In the matrix Chris developed for the Elements of the Healthcare Collaboration-Protocol Profile, please distinguish between stuff which is native to ebXML (I suspect this includes certificate handling) and that stuff which is completely new and not thought of by the ebXML people. We'll have to have some organized manner, perhaps in the form of a "subsidiary" schema, to give the OASIS ebXML Technical Committee to show our new elements which pertain to Healthcare EDI. Actually, is there any possibility that our "kind" of stuff (e.g., which transactions are supported, with their start dates) is more properly part of a Business Process rather than an ebXML CPP? If so, then we might also have to "liase" with the UN/CEFACT ebTWG eBusiness Transition Working Group, at http://www.ebtwg.org/ - providing yet another opportunity for "volunteers" who are looking for work to do.
