RE: [regrep] UK Govt regrep requirements

[Diego Ballvé <diego.ballve@republica.fi>]

Paul,

Republica is also working with eGov Forms and we have produced a
form assembler pilot for the Government of Finland. Basically, we
extracted the form parts and modeled them as BIEs, according to
CCTS; we used ebxmlrr as our Reg Rep and similar approach to what
is being discussed in the cc-review subcommittee; for assembling/
generating the form, we used a web tool and XSLT + extensions.

You might want to check the case study, currently available at
http://www.republica.fi/lomake/ebXML_CaseStudy_eGovForms.doc.
There is also an online demo of the Assembly tool, available at
http://www.republica.fi/lomake/ (Pages in English, BIE content
in Finnish).

Regards,
Diego Ballve
