Subject: Re: issue resolution updates


Paul,
Since the Specification Schema no longer has a DocumentModel, I propose to
remove all associated references to the analysis and structure of
BusinessDocuments from the Specification Schema, and leave that up to CC
documents as agreed in Tokyo. I think we should try to make the Specification
Schema shorter, not longer.

>BusinessDocument is, and "logicalModel" points to where the CC context
>model

>is
>assumed to not have been created using CC context model. 7. There was no
>support for simplifying ebXML process specification by allowing Business
