Subject: Re: Translation Web Services Update
Hi Kevin and Peter,
First of all many thanks to Kevin for all his hard work - his
contribution is immeasurable in its value.
I had a suspicion that we would come across issues like this - as this
is the first reference implementation. I am at the moment extremely
busy, so it would be easier for me initially to deal with the issues as
Kevin suggests via email.
My recommendation is that Kevin updates the schemas as required as he is
now closest to the issues and knows best how to affect the required changes.
Best Regards,
AZ
