Subject: RE: [ebsoa] New Chair - John Hardin
Yes - thanks David. My point was that, as written in a public forum, a reader could interpret the quote I highlighted below - since it had no additional context - as meaning that there is an ebXML v3 - which implies that there is an ebXML v2 as well (is that the case? I have not seen this "officially" spoken of). Vague statements such as this - though well-meant and unintentional - tend to perpetuate the very problems that I believe this TC is trying to overcome (the problem of confusion and misinformation with regards to these initiatives). And when they come from well-meaning TC chairs, the problem is magnified.
