UBL International Data Dictionary 2.1 working spreadsheets are mounted

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

Fellow UBL TC members,

Please find the four UBL International Data Dictionary 2.1 working 
spreadsheets mounted here:

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B4X4evii3UjcV3JJclNfMVF2dVU&usp=sharing

Note that the German (DE) spreadsheet was only ever in a draft state 
and not finalized.  I believe I have properly transcribed the other 
three languages, Spanish (ES), Italian (IT) and Japanese (JP), which 
were all voted on and approved for UBL 2.0.

Voting members who wish to contribute to these spreadsheets must give 
me (off list) their email address associated with their Google Drive 
accounts.  I will then give those voting members edit access to 
columns G and H.

When column I is empty, then the UBL 2.1 definition for that BIE is 
either non-existent in UBL 2.0 or identical to UBL 2.0.  When 
non-empty, it is the old UBL 2.0 definition before it was changed in UBL 2.1.

We need to review these sheets for any necessary technical changes 
before we start populating content.  Thankfully, the spreadsheet is 
quite simple behind the scenes, so I'm not expecting to have to make 
any technical changes.  Once people start making changes I cannot 
refresh the spreadsheets or their work will be lost.

Note that I am aware that Google Drive is corrupting the thick border 
to the right of column H of BBIE rows.  In my master ODS file the 
thick border appears.  After uploading the thick border 
disappears.  This has been the least of the problems as I've had to 
make other changes to get around Google Drive bugs that are triggered 
on the BBIE rows.

Please post to the TC list your suggestions or bug reports 
ASAP.  Next week I will post to the UBL Dev list the protocol of 
accepting input from non-members only through the UBL TC comment list.

Finally, note that these are collaborative spreadsheets and anyone 
can work on any of the sheets at the same time.

Please let me know if you have any questions or if you find any 
problems.  And please take the time in the next few days to review 
these so that we can earnestly start the editing process next 
week.  As you are doing your tests, please keep record of what you 
are doing so that I can regenerate the starter spreadsheets next week 
before making them public.
