AW: [ubl-dev] UBL vs UN/CEFACT
Hello Danny and Roberto,
especially, mentioning
UN/EDIFACT the point is, that UN/EDIFACT was there for a long time
before UBL came up. As far as I remember, UBL came up, during the time
of the ebXML project. So indeed, you could turn the question just the
other way round.

Hello Danny,
probably you can find some answers into the MoU for eBusiness where
OASIS has been invited:
http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/e-business/mou/
and following the link "Key Standards" under Resources, you will find
UBL too:
http://www.itu.int/ITU-T/e-business/mou/MoUMG-standards.html
In few words the MoU on eBusiness is promoting collaboration and re-use
of existing standards within partecipants.
UBL was in the agenda of the MoU/Management Group
http://xml.coverpages.org/MoU-MG-OASIS2002.pdf
http://xml.coverpages.org/MOU-OASIS-200202.html
Compared to UN/EDIFact, UBL can be considered as the eBusiness kernel,
just like ISO20022-UNIFI is the eFinance kernel and WCO is the Customs
kernel, so on...
So I understood it was a logic path to create a unique integrated set
of business documents & messages for the whole Financial Supply
Chain.
UBL was effectively into this path from a long time, expecially due to
the MoU.
Today the possibility to endorse OASIS and W3C Standards by European
Standardization bodies is providing new instruments to protect the best
practices and standardization efforts provided by relevant Open
Consortium (aka User Groups).

Hope this helps,
Best regards,

Dear all,
I just recently got the question what has been the reason for starting
the development of UN/CEFACT whereas UBL was already available. I have
been reading a lot about this but apart from the CCTS approach that has
been worked out much further within UN/CEFACT I do not really find the
answer.
Any one out there that has been there from the start remembers why ?
kind regards
Danny Gaethofs
