UDDI explorer

Question

Using WL8.1 as an evaluation tool.
When I open UDDI explorer there are no "built in" taxonomies as described at http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/webserv/uddi.html.
Additionally, I cannot seem to get the pluggable tModel thing to work either by adding my own XML file.
Has anyone gotten this to work or are taxonomies not functional in WL8.1 and below?
thanks!

Hi,
I have a requirement to use the hierarchical categories for my web services. I was able to add my business entity on weblogic UDDI server within the categories's key name- key value pair(for example name111,111 as in the below given XML). And even can search for this entity with the category bag. However when I try to publish web service with the wrong key value pair for the categories the entity is added and can be searched too.
1st question is:
Do you have any idea as to why the categories are not being validated by the UDDI server at the time of business entity creationg in the UDDI registry and hence I can attach even the wrong categories to business entity?
2nd question is:
Can I update below given pluggable Tmodel with the new categories at different levels of hierarchy whenever I add a new category and load that Tmodel also w/o restarting the weblogic registry server.
Here is the code which I used to add & search for business entity:
Save Business Entity:
BusinessEntity be = new BusinessEntity();
be.setBusinessKey("");
be.setName("MyNewTestingCompanyMsdnMsdn");
be.addDescription("My New Test Description");
CategoryBag cb = new CategoryBag();
Vector vv = new Vector();
vv.add(new KeyedReference("uuid:45c74b90-d851-4ade-b757-321b02774634","name111","112"));
cb.setKeyedReferenceVector(vv);
     be.setCategoryBag(cb);
Vector vbe = new Vector();
vbe.add(be);
System.out.print("Saving Business .....");
SaveBusiness sb = new SaveBusiness();
sb.setAuthInfo(ai);
sb.setBusinessEntityVector(vbe);
BusinessDetail bdtls = p.saveBusiness(sb);
System.out.println("Done.");
be = (BusinessEntity) bdtls.getBusinessEntityVector().elementAt(0);
Find Business Entity by Category:
CategoryBag categoryBag = new CategoryBag();
categoryBag.addKeyedReference("uuid:45c74b90-d851-4ade-b757-321b02774634", "name111","112");
FindQualifiers fqs = new FindQualifiers();
fqs.addFindQualifier("sortByNameDesc");
FindBusiness fb = new FindBusiness();
fb.setFindQualifiers(null);
fb.setCategoryBag(categoryBag);
BusinessList rBusinessList = i.findBusiness(fb);
