I applaud and support the efforts of UBL and UN/CEFACT to unify their
efforts and look forward to a positive outcome.

Subject: [ubl-comment] UBL and UN/CEFACT


Following discussions at UN/CEFACT's Forum last week, CEFACT created a 
proposal to unify the efforts of OASIS's UBL TC work and UN/CEFACT's Core 
Component work. The text of the proposal is attached, and I have been asked 
by CEFACT leadership to convey it to you.  I believe this is the same 
document transmitted to Jon Bosak earlier this weekend.

UN/CEFACT will be appointing a small team to discuss the proposal with UBL 
designees.  I'm just the messenger here, having helped raise the issue a 
few weeks ago (along with Ralph Berwanger, Klaus Naujok and Ray 
Walker).  My expectation is that UBL reps will have more detailed 
discussions with CEFACT leadership, which in light of our recent elections 
are likely to involve Forum Coordination Team chair Melanie McCarthy and 
ATG group chair Margaret Pemberton.
