Re: [ubl-ndrsc] Removing use of "-" in element and type names

I don't believe there's currently a rule that covers this.

My guess is that the rule should state something like "The case
of the word segment that comes after the (deleted) hypen
remains" (that is, E-mail becomes Email, whereas E-Mail
becomes EMail); Lisa, we should put this in the agenda, I
believe.
