Although the specification ebRIM v2.0 (5 December 2001) says at the beginning in its Design Objectives: "Leverage as much as possible the work done in the OASIS [OAS] and the ISO 11179 [ISO] Registry models" [2] by the time of ebRIM v3.0 (2 May 2005) all reference to ISO/IOEC 11179 is reduced to a mention under informative references on page 76 of 78.

[3] It was recognised by some team members that the ebXML RIM data model had no place to store "fine grained artifacts" [4] ie.

Metadata registries are frequently large and complex structures and require navigation, visualization and searching tools.

Metadata publishing consists of making data element definitions and structures available to both people and other systems.
