Michael,

I had a contact with John myself last week discussing the liaison.
Because I am participating in this TC John ad I agreed that I would do
the liaison for the time being. But perhaps there are others who want to
join in. I certainly cannot visit all their face to face meetings.
Perhaps it is possible to make a roster.

Tax XML TC,

I thought you might be interested that we've been listed in the
e-Government standards matrix as an entity responsible for the Tax
aspects.
I believe this puts us on the critical path for the success of
e-Government
TC. We will need to establish a formal liaison with e-Government TC even
though we have individuals participating in both Tax and e-Government
TCs.

Thanks,

Michael.

Diane

Thanks for an interesting discussion yesterday.  It set me thinking
about
what is the ultimate output from the TC, hence I'm copying in the whole
membership on this note.

We talked a lot about the need for matrices of services and standards,
and
I believe that is ultimately what we should as a TC be aiming to produce
and publish - a set of matrices for Services/Functions, Infrastructures
etc
that show for each particular aspect of e-government our recommended
standards.  This would be invaluable to governments, particularly those
that are new to the e-government work, and those communities of
governments
like us in the EU who are looking to join up on service delivery.
Clearly
we cannot mandate these standards but it would send clear messages to
governments around the world, and their IT suppliers, which are the
standards they should give serious consideration to.

On that basis I've sketched out a matrix for your Services focus along
the
lines of what we discussed yesterday, and one for what I'm calling
Infrastructures.  This is a first cut and we can develop it and add to
it
as we go.  I will be suggesting to the TC on Wednesday that we need
another
Sub-committee to address the infrastructure issues.    The role of both
these SCs would in effect be to populate these matrices, and that of
course
will require looking at what's the current standard if any , whose doing
what, where are the gaps that need new work and instigating that work,
etc
as we discussed yesterday.

I see the role of the Best Practices SC to then produce case studies on
as
many of these aspects as possible and they can be cross-referenced in
the
matrices.  The ebXML/Web Services SC would feed into many aspects of the
matrices both as solutions to services and also aspects of
infrastructure.

As I said I'll add this to the agenda for the TC meeting on Wednesday as
I
think it would help us all if we had an agreed vision of the end point
of
our work.   Views in the interim from all would be welcomed.

Apologies that this is only in Word format but I haven't got Open Office
on
my laptop.

Regards,
John
