Subject: Re: TA agenda Tokyo


Duane,

The TA document suppose be the (road map) to what is being develop in the
specs the working groups spend 12 month working on, the TA doc suppose to
define the interfaces and interactions between all the components, and if
these working group  are developing their spec according to the scope and
the functionality of exbxml requirements doc, and there are no overlaps or
problems with the integration between the components, they not suppose to
change just because the TA document has larger scope or different
functionality. I know it is not how it should be done, and the TA document
suppose to be the first document and provide the road map for other specs to
follow, but you know as every one else in ebxml know, it is too late for
that.
