SV: [ubl-dev] Invitation to Participate in Developing a Catalogue Document for Submission into UBL 2.0.

[Mikkel Hippe Brun <mhb@itst.dk>]

Hi David,

This is an initiative taken by the Danish Government, and we invite anyone
interested in electronic catalogues to participate. We will submit the
outcome of this work to the UBL TC as a proposal for inclusion in UBL 2.0.
The initiative has been included in the UBL 2.0 schedule under the condition
that we deliver on time in an open and accountable process.

Your countryman, Tim McGrath, will be chairing the workshops and conference
calls and Tim will also be responsible for documenting the output of the
work. Tim's intimate knowledge of UBL and data modelling will surely give us
a sound and balanced outcome.

We welcome all proposals for this work and we plan to set up a conference
line in order to allow people to call in.

Regards

Mikkel
