Changes to xNL and xCIL

[Ram Kumar <rkumar@msi.com.au>]

Hi all

Recently, I came across a Vetinary doctor who was talking to me about
e-business and
standards for representing customer data, etc. I then mentioned about xCIL
and
xNAL. He was impressed. Then, he raised this interesting question. "Our
customers
are living species excluding human beings" in our database. Do you cater for
such
type of name and address? GOOD POINT! The data in Vetinary hospitals
somewhat look like
this.

TIGER (Dog)

Phone:
Fax:
Age:
Date of Birth:
Sex:
Physical Characteristics:
Color, height, weight, marks

A customer is a customer whether it is a dog or human or a company. We have
to cater for all types
of customer name and address data if we claim that xNAL and xCIL represents
global customer data.
I therefore, spent about 10 minutes to fix the xNAL and xCIL to cater for
this data set.

What do you think?
