Subject: Re: [regrep] UK Government Registry Requirements
Paul,
Returning to the addressing stuff - the OASIS CIQ
work and
related to that the
UPU work is extremely fine-grained.
The level of detail of not just the XML elements -
but the semantics,
rules and formats are covered. There are
roughly five address formats
for each postal service - as you point out - its
not just about
delivering bits of mail. The cultural rules
on address formatting are
also very important - as is being able to handle
addresses of
say - waterpumping stations and power substations
for utilities.
So - you will find that the UPU particularly has a
great deal of
semantics on all this.
The CAM has been upgraded to cover off what the UPU
needs,
and so the ultimate goal from the enduser
experience is to
have an address object - that they input context
into -
such as locale and use - and have the XML
autoconfigure
to that.
We have been busy looking at this in significant
detail.
Thanks, DW.
