AW: [ebxml-dev] ebXML CPA/CPP Estimate

Hi Mike,

This is especially true, if digital signatures and certificates are
involved. Those have to be exchnaged anyway. Therefore retrieving a CPP
may help, and having a CPA helps even more. On the other hand,
exchanging the CPA also requires a already working infrastructure, which
means, most of the parameters the CPA can deliver are already set up.

Instead of configuring a system with lots of parameters from a CPP I
vote for specifying reasonable defauts for all those parameters. This is
much more cost saving on the SMB case.
