I can see how the Business Process and Business Information Analysis Overview
should be pre-requisite reading to any of this material.

However, i understood that the Business Process Analysis Worksheets &
Guidelines was in fact a guideline for using the Specification Schema and that
the E-Commerce and Simple Negotiation Patterns and Catalog of Common Business
Processes were instances of this model.  I apologise if this is not the case.

My comment was also influenced by the work plan the QR team have prepared,
which assumes we shall review all BP documents together.  We have found it
helps us maintain consistency and perspective if we have similar material on
hand  at the same time (especially when the team are having to deal with all
the diverse aspects of ebXML).

Given our schedule and your intentions, this was not an issue.
