Subject: [ubl] Resolution 10/6/2002: Negotiations with UN/CEFACT
Jon, Thank you for distributing these materials. As per your brief, key issues to meeting business needs for the 'user' community as it relates to UBL are: 1. Momentum 2. Responsiveness to your membership Are these items driven by priorities of solution providers rather than the business needs cited above? 1. Lose of UBL brand 2. Publicity - ancillary to #2 3. Brand marketing - same Handle separately: 1. IP issues Note: Meetings earlier in the week seemed to indicate the progress on this item, and work within UN/CEFACT was to be confirmed and actively addressed. Near-term assimilation of UBL into ATG as a 'workable' solution: Refer to differences between business need and solution provider focus. With UBL as 'the' standard payload for ebXML, given the global exposure of work within UN/CEFACT, can you reasonably expect UBL to be designated solely? A primay goal for ebXML is to enable vertical industry to 'plug-in', and the actual payload is not constricted and highly available (i.e. to EAN.UCC, SWIFT, OAG users, etc). Is not the UBL goal to have our work seen as 'an' ebXML payload? Recommend you evaluate the premise of the final item and the mission/goals of ebXML as a global enabler for eBusiness (unless the context of this recommendation is other than I have stated...If so, please explain as it would assist the UBL membership). Thank you. Monica J.

My current personal view is summed up in slides 9 and 10 of the report from the closing TC plenary held 4 October. http://oasis-open.org/committees/ubl/200210/plen-report-20021004.ppt The group present at the meeting accepted the following two resolutions by common consent. Since we did not have the quorum needed to adopt formal TC resolutions, however, these decisions must now be ratified by email. 1. That the following persons be appointed to a negotiation team empowered to respond to the recent UBL unification proposal from UN/CEFACT: Jon Bosak (UBL TC chair) Mark Crawford (UBL TC vice chair, ATG2 chair) Karl Best (OASIS) Arofan Gregory Stig Korsgaard Gunther Stuhec Lisa Seaburg 2. That the ground rules for this discussion be as follows: a. Correspondence with the UN/CEFACT negotiating team will take place in an archived mail list to be created by OASIS for this purpose. b. Any agreement arrived at through negotiation will be submitted to the TC for formal approval. If any voting member of the UBL TC objects to the adoption of these resolutions, please register such objection via mail to this list no later than COB 10 October 2002.
