The Peppol network publishing of code lists

["G. Ken Holman" <g.ken.holman@gmail.com>]

Fellow CLRTC members,

Just this morning we were wondering about whether Peppol publishes 
its code lists in genericode.

Thirty minutes ago I discovered that they do!

https://docs.peppol.eu/edelivery/codelists/

The correct spelling of "genericode" aside (note we've always used 
lower-case "g" except at the start of a sentence), I'm glad to see it there!

A quick glance indicates they are using genericode properly and well.

Note that a version in JSON is available for each list.

One thing not mentioned at the meeting this morning is that we can 
lean on the argument that the tight binding JSON provides between 
application means that programmers will want to use their own JSON 
arrangement. If we stick to XML only, then projects can choose to 
publish in XML and have users convert the open standardized XML into 
bespoke JSON as they require for their application. What use is it 
publishing a committee JSON format if programmers are going to 
rearrange it anyway for their bespoke use?

But that's just food for thought while we go through our identified 
task of getting industry feedback.

Have a good weekend!
