BCM / BPSS and eBML?

["David Webber \(XML\)" <david@drrw.info>]

I just bumped into this this morning, and I like what I see:

This presentation could have been written by the BCM team here!

Has anyone come across these eBML folks already?

They clearly are aware of the ebXML work - but consider their work a higher
level.

Seems like we could easily turn them on to BCM / BPSS since they clearly
are already drinking the Kool-Aid here - and I believe BCM / BPSS is now
advancing to the point where the two in tandem should give you what eBML
is doing - or close enough that we should be collaborating together to
figure
out the deltas and the gaps.

I'm not clear on the status of eBML though - who is funding it - and
so on - seems research driven in the mobile industry - Nokia?

I met with someone from Nokia last year at the semantic Workshop in Norway -
and
its clear they are doing some very cutting edge stuff to support mobile
workflow
processes.

Anyone have better insights here?

Thanks, DW
