REVIEW OF TC MEETING IN BOLOGNA 14-18 APRIL 2008

   See

      http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/200804/msg00010.html

   The following recommendations from the Bologna meeting were
   reviewed and affirmed.

      AGREED to form a Task Group to identify financial
      requirements for inclusion in UBL 2.1 as soon as prospective
      members have confirmed their interest.  It is understood
      that this means adding information items to existing UBL
      documents in support of financial requirements, not creating
      new documents or processes that are already provided in ISO
      20022.

      AGREED to form a Business Rules Task Group consisting at a
      minimum of G. Ken Holman and Peter Borresen.  Other
      interested members of the TC are invited to join.  (PB and
      AS have action items from Bologna to provide initial lists
      of rules from the PSC and TSC, respectively.)

      AGREED that the UBL TC should not create UBL profiles but
      rather leave this to other organizations.

      AGREED to suspend operation of the SBSC for the time being.
      It may be revived if interest increases.

      AGREED that to preserve end-to-end use of common business
      objects, we will accept all of the BII requirements for
      eTendering documents.

UBL 2.1 ISSUES LIST

   ACTION (12/18): TM to populate the new issues list with all
   currently known UBL 2.1 issues.

      Pending.

2008 TC MEETING SCHEDULE

   4-8 August 2008 in Montréal

      Confirmed.  Hotel Europa, rue Drummond (the week prior to
      the Balisage conference in the same location).

   January 2009 in Fremantle

      AGREED to set a preliminary date of 5-9 January 2009 for
      this meeting.  Other arrangements TBD.

TC CONCALL SCHEDULE

   Back to our regular schedule, though all of the regular Pacific
   call participants will be traveling.  AS is on leave, but JB,
   GKH, and TM all intend to participate in the Pacific call for
   at least the next two weeks.  GKH will probably be requesting a
   leave of absence in the meeting 12|13 May.
