Object Repository - Update


Rob Underwood (Deactivated)

Hammad: Want to be able to see and discover the the object so they can look at it, understand the categorization of the product, very simply see the object – label of the object has to be easily understandable. Sales people, traders, analysts – for them to understand, yes this works, 

They should be able to easily edit; intutitive to extend a reference. 

Tony from UBS: We should look at what the industry uses; ISDA uses FPML – the IT people than convert that to JSON to Protobuf. There is a DSL called Rosetta. 

Look at home different standards groups – how they communicate the structure
