Interoperability of CAP 1.0 and 1.1 Systems

I discussed the implications of creating a new format for references with Tom Merkle this afternoon.  I already have to develop a significant program to convert CAP 1.1 Messages to CAP 1.0 Messages to demonstrate CBRNE interoperability for CWID.  The proposed changes are needed but who is going to develop a reference translator since all current systems DMIS and CapWIN only understand CAP 1.0 message formats.  Even though I think this is a CAP 2.0 and EDXL issues, interoperability between CAP 1.1 and 1.0 systems are really going to have challenging CONOPS.
