--------------------------------------

Thanks Ken for your precious inputs.
I agree to go with a single document. I'll ask Tim to choose a suitable name within a list of candidates.

About social media information in my last comments I proposed to use an ASBIE to ExternalReference that is a little bit more than just an URI, but the best seems to me to create a new ABIE in the CommonAggregateComponents with a cleaner structure:
SocialMediaType  (the new SocialMedia ABIE)
- cbc:ID         An identifier for a specific social media (e.g. FB)
- cbc:UUID    A universally unique identifier for a specific social media
- cbc:SocialMediaTypeCode    A code that specifies the type of social media (social network, business network, ...)
- cbc:Name   The common name of the social media (e.g. Facebook)
- cbc:URI       The Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) of the party's profile in the social media; i.e., its Uniform Resource Locator (URL)

A new BBIE has been introduced too:
SocialMediaTypeCodeType

About EDI details (capabilities) I am unsure how we can move for different reasons:
1) if we put EDI capabilities inside Party we have the chance to use a single document for exchanging one or more Party information. Conversely, we will be limited to a single Party.
2) The Party ABIE is in my opinion the only party information we can exchange. I mean we cannot exchange a SupplierParty a CustomerParty or any other Party extension.
3) I think Party is a relevant "common" part of any party information and I note that it is mainly representing a party within the electronic business. This reason I think electronic business capabilities (aka EDI capabilities) are a primary information that is not second to party legal or tax information. The main fact is that EDI info are a common information for any party within the electronic business so I insist to include these info inside Party.
