Subject: [tax] Gartner Research Commentary on XML defined standards
Greetings, Attached is a recent Gartner Research Commentary that may be of interest to the committee. The document takes a fairly negative view of the current state of affairs for XML-defined standards, but the conclusions and bottom line of the article seems to confirm that the work we have planned for the Tax XML TC is headed in the right direction. The document contains some misinformation relating to some of the standards efforts cited in the article. As an example that we are familiar with, the characterization of TaXML as an effort by "a single company [to] develop and publish a standard for public development and use" is inaccurate and not up-to-date. However, while the examples may not be appropriate, the sentiments expressed are certainly ones we should be aware of and factor in to our plans. We will be contacting the author, Rita Knox, to update her on the work being planned for the Tax XML TC, and solicit her opinions on our apporach. Regards John and Michael (See attached file: Here's What's Wrong With XML Defined Standards.pdf)
