RE: conf call and e-mail

[Vincent Buller <vincent@and.nl>]

Hello Ram, all,

still having to look at the NAML-GlobalAddress comparison table in detail, I
would like to repeat my observations and views following my brief scan of
the information:

- I do not see any major differences (which is in line with our earlier
ad-hoc comparison during XML2000)
- One difference is the higher level of detail in NAML; the AND
GLobalAddress used to have that also, and I will add it again to the
definition. Our goal here is to allow for optional levels of detail used
according to the needs of the trading partners.
- My suggestion for the other issue, name vs. address, is to make a
distinction between organization name (which is sometimes needed to make an
a address complete) and a personal name (which is not, as far as the postal
authorities are concerned - perhaps with the one example of 'poste
restante'?). This would imo lead to the following action plan: we use the
personal name part of NAML as-is, including all the 'persons representing
other persons' modeling, and the GlobalAddress as the two core components
for xNAL. I will extend GlobalAddress with the increased (prefix, suffix)
levels of detail, and we both have to think about the role of the
organization in the address and discuss this in a weeks time or so.

Adios,
Vince
