Re: Merge og definition review version 4

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@CraneSoftwrights.com>]

I was asked to repackage the information found in this post:

  https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201301/msg00047.html

Please find below the discrepancies in the definitions that need addressing.

With this new presentation of the information, it is revealed that 
most of the problems dealing with mismatched old definitions are from 
the "maindoc" spreadsheet of definitions.  Recall that we have, in 
fact, three spreadsheets of definitions, not just two.

Tim, may I ask you, please, to take ownership of the "maindoc" 
definitions?  Andy already has the TSC definitions and Peter already 
has the PSC definitions.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding my 
instructions below.  I hope this version of the information helps.

Unsynchronized definitions - the database has been updated since the

the goods are to be delivered to the order of a named person, or to 
order, or to bearer, constitutes such an undertaking.
