Me too! Wow, Ken, this is starting to get really exciting. I will be sharing
this with my UNedocs colleagues and look forward to planning with you and
your colleagues how we might plan to move forward to using this technology
to illustrate cross-border trade facilitation. 

regards

I, for one, am amazed and what is now being produced.  Ken's work is 
really the first UBL application and its results show the value of all 
the effort UBL has put in.  Obviously, we have work to do, but to see 
such artifacts is a great encouragement.

Thanks Ken, for giving us such positive re-inforcement.
