Subject: RosettaNet Comments
We received a comments document from RosettaNet that went through a comparison and commenting of our NDRs. We have broken them into sections that go together for discussion purposes. Each section is being sent out in email. Please take the time to read through and comment back to the list. Since we are so close to deadline, this is important that it get done as soon as possible. Thank you. 2.3.3 Rule 83 Rule: Trading partners may agree on other character encodings to use among themselves. It is recommended in all case that encoding declarations be provided in the XML declarations of documents. Comment: For interoperability reasons it would be beneficial to restrict the character encoding. Suggestions: Trading partners MUST use either UTF-8 or UTF-16 character encodings among themselves. It is recommended in all case that encoding declarations be provided in the XML declarations of documents. 'UTF-8' or 'UTF-16' MUST be used as the value for character set and encoding type. 2.3.5 Rule 89 Rule: Acronyms and abbreviations must only be taken from the latest version of the Pocket Oxford English Dictionary. The first occurrence listed for a word will be the preferred item to be used. Comment: This rule seems to contradict with Rule 87. Also, there exist industry specific acronyms that are in wide use. Suggestions: Remove the rule. 2.3.6 Rule 103 Rule: Substitution groups MUST NOT be used. 219 Comment: Sometimes it is useful to use substitution groups. Suggestions: Substitution groups MAY be used with caution. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Lisa Seaburg AEON Consulting Website: http://www.aeon-llc.com Email: lseaburg@aeon-llc.com Alternative Email: xcblgeek@yahoo.com Phone: 662-562-7676 Cellphone: 662-501-7676 "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun." -Katharine Hepburn ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ We received a comments document from RosettaNet that went through a comparison and commenting of our NDRs.
