Summary
Need for Views. Rearranging the FpML schema -> using a chameleon style design, we will have a shared layer without namespace and different views subschemas with its own namespace. Use the substitution group concept to select which "view" of product would be needed for a particular message (e.g. have different substitution groups for pre-trade, confirmation, and post-trade products).

Brian Lynn’s proposal on views to be considered by AWG prior to CC review. AWG thinks that it is an interesting idea but that some prototyping should be done. (the initial trigger of this proposal was the need for using adjustable dates into different contexts).

Approach is now leading to a master schema with annotations from which an xslt transformation is applied in order to generate the view specific schemas.
