[ubl-lcsc] Re: Fwd: UBL and xNAL: is there/should there be aconnection?

[Tim McGrath <tmcgrath@portcomm.com.au>]

as you are aware, our initial work is to be based on xCBL3.0 so that 
will determine the flavour of our "Name and Address" BIEs.  however, as 
CIQ and UBL are both aiming to achieve ebXML compliance, we are both 
moving in the same  direction.  This may mean we are aligned with CIQ at 
the "Tagname" level, or maybe at the BIE level or maybe at the Core 
Component level.  It will depend on  how close the CIQ team feel we are. 
 my personal view is that it is more likely we shall be BIE aligned. 
 that is you will be able to identify a xCIL element with its 
corresponding UBL BIE.

The plan is that the CIQ people will review our draft BIEs and propose 
modifications to align it with  xCIL.

we have been in regular contac with the CIQ Chair  about this.
