   Review of Atlantic call

      ACTION: JB to put 2007 F2F meeting schedule in separate mail
      to make clear that the UBL TC meeting now scheduled for 7-11
      May 2007 in Manhattan replaces the meetings previously
      scheduled for March 2007 in Gaithersburg and June 2007 in
      Ithaca.

UBL 2.0 STANDARDIZATION

   JB: UBL 2.0 is an OASIS Standard!

   ACTION: PSC to follow up with Harm Jan van Burg to gain an
   understanding of his negative vote.

UBL 2.0 TRANSLATION

   Signing off on the translation templates:

      http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/21402/idd2-templates.zip

   No one has had a chance to look at these.

   ACTION: TC to review the templates this week; if no comments by
   next week, go ahead and distribute to LSCs.

BASIC INTERNATIONAL TRADE SCENARIO (BITS)

   Starting a review of this work:

      http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/21424/BITSdraft01-20061205.doc

   AS: Complimentary input from Saito-san; encouraged to move
   forward. Need to engage PSC for front-end stuff.  See note in
   the BITS draft.

   ACTION: PSC to review the procurement instances in the BITS
   draft [see URL above] in order to align the procurement data
   with the data in the transportation instances.

   AS: Note that GKH has provided a stylesheet that allows
   instance data to be displayed in tabular form -- very useful
   for this kind of comparison.

   ACTION: GKH to provide a pointer to this stylesheet.

   [This may be the same as the "context/value association file
   visualization stylesheet" at
   http://www.cranesoftwrights.com/resources/ubl/Crane-assoc-gc-xsl-20061210-1320z.zip]

   TM: Note that the Order instance in BITS is based on the SBS
   Order, so this should be familiar.  We just need to align this
   with the transportation documents.

ACTION ITEM REVIEW

   ACTION: JB to contact SW for the EF data model.

      JB: SW says to contact GEFEG and reports that she won't be
      able to participate actively in this cycle.

      TM: Will send the Enterprise Architect data model.

   ACTION: TM to provide details on the meeting in Singapore when
   he gets home from Europe.

      JB: Specifically, Support Package scheduling.

      TM: Will check notes.

   ACTION: JB to ask the LSCs for estimates (we already have
   estimates from JPLSC and ITLSC).

      Done, replies still coming in.

OTHER BUSINESS

   JB: Note that there are no UBL meetings next week.  The next
   UBL con calls will take place the week of 8 January, but we
   will continue work by email in the meantime.

   TM: Note that WA is now on Daylight Time, so Perth is in the
   same time zone as Tokyo (14 hours ahead of New York).
