UN XML project gains Microsoft support

[David RR Webber - XML ebusiness <Gnosis_@compuserve.com>]

Team,

Someone asked about codelists in our meeting in London
and we had some discussion around the OASIS Registry 
SC on Representations in XML.

This URL:

 http://www.unece.org/etrades/unedocs/codelist.htm

has details on the UNECE work on this.  It's troubling
that CEFACT is not coordinating this back thru into
the ebXML work inside OASIS - but at least we've managed
to make the connection now - via an "interrupt" jump!

Anyway - I'll undertake to bring this to the attention of
the OASIS Registry SC that is reviewing CCTS representation,
as clearly some level of compatibility here would be
constructive.

Thanks, DW.

RE:	UN XML project gains Microsoft support

 
How does this match the ISO work or X12 efforts or OASIS UBL initiative?  Or
is it apples and pears?

Any insight here would be great.

A United Nations project using XML (Extensible Markup Language) to give
small and medium-sized companies an alternative to paper forms when doing
business across borders has won support from Microsoft.  Microsoft
demonstrated how UNeDocs, the product of the XML project, would work with
its InfoPath application. Details of the prototype InfoPath implementation
will be released within 30 days.
