RE: FpML-AWG views

Yes, we did consider this. (Pierre Lamy proposed this). We didn’t implement the idea for a couple of reasons:

- views are mostly oriented around the type of business process. Both short form and long form representations are typically used in the same business processes (e.g. confirmation).

- more importantly, we thought that we may want to have both short and long forms available in the same view, for confirmation, so you could choose between one and the other without changing schemas.

For these reasons, we thought that adding a view to handle this might not be the best idea, but we didn’t categorically close the door on the idea… Instead we thought it would be better to get more feedback.

Perhaps we should revisit Pierre’s idea.

Did we ever consider using the 'views' to distinguish between Short Form and Long Form trades? What was our conclusion?

At the moment I am working through the CD rules for a "Books and Records" project at JPMC. It struck me how many of the rules were specific to either Short Form or Long Form, and were largely just saying which fields were present for which. This might be more easily represented by a separate Short Form and Long Form view. This would be an area where there could be a good 'business' demand for 'views'.
