Subject: Re: [ubl-dev] Call for participation: UBL 1.1


John & anybody else,

It's pretty obvious that UBL is probably alive and well.

But what has happened with ebxml? that doesn't seem to
be making the same rate of progress forward.

Might it be true that the only good thing to come out
of ebxml is actually UBL?
