My post was an effort to provide quality control 
and to support the development of the spreadsheets.

My post was not meant in any way to be a 
criticism of the existing methodology that I wholeheartedly support.

I would not even suggest that we move away from 
our current methodology of collaborative 
development in a set of open spreadsheet files using ODF.

That I can automatically extract the entire 
content of the suite of document models in XML 
suitable for XSLT processing using open and 
freely-available tools to supplement my UBL 
training materials and provide what I hope is 
useful feedback during development is, I believe, 
a resounding affirmation of our committee's 
existing approach.  I'm not sure how I would be 
benefited or would benefit the committee using 
other approaches.  Out of this process I am 
creating effective learning materials for UBL users.
