Re: [ebsoa] Fwd: Editors Action Item

Thanks Sally. I noted that you did not reference ebXML in the audience
description (not saying that that is a good or bad thing - just an
observation). This brings up the question: If someone did not - for
whatever reason - "subscribe" to the "ebXML way of doing things", how
useful to them is our final output intended to be?

100% useful? 50? 10?

Thanks,
Joe
