Roberto, would you please move your comments to the JIRA ticket 
regarding extensible ABIES?

  https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL-174?filter=13472

As discussed at our last meeting, those interested in any given JIRA 
ticket should subscribe to that ticket's updates.  Soon the TC will 
move to "terse" mode for JIRA ticket notifications.  Each ticket is 
subscribed to individually.

Thank you!  Your ideas in this regard are very interesting.

. . . . . . Ken
