Re: Which documents to start with?

Tom,

The content of the messages sent using the ebXML
infrastructure is not defined by ebXML. This was never a
goal of the ebXML initiative. Rather, it is intended
that the content (business payload) be defined by the
various industry vertical organizations defining
vocabularies such as RosettaNet, OTA, HL7, OAG, etc... 

Of course, individual enterprises/vendors are also
free to define their own (possibly proprietary) 
message sets as they see fit.

The Architecture specification should probably be read first.
It puts the other specifications into context and might
suggest to you where to go next.

HTH,

Chris
