Subject: RE: [ubl] [Fwd: New Release of NIST's XML Schema Quality of Design Tool]
Tim, Taxpayer dollars are used to fund NIST work. OAG, the IRS, and Navy have a large US user base. UBL did not at the time this work was started and still does not have a large base of US implementations today. Extremely care will need to be used before unilaterally trying to apply Danish government schematron rules for US UBL use.

How come OAG, IRS and Navy get a mention and UBL doesn't? How can we remedy this? The Danish government have a comprehensive set of schematron rules for UBL - can we utilize those?
