And you are of the opinion that standardization .. is not substantive to interoperability?  It would appear that this is the basis for all of the technical issues relative to interoperability.  And, as the world turns.. the work of neither standardization nor interoperablilty, regardless of the venue, will ever be complete, except in the minds of software promoters, software developers and consultants.

A couple of (perverse?) tangential observations for your
consideration.  These have to do with ebXML itself and not particularly
with this thread:

1)  One of the primary goals of ebXML was to enable interoperability.   Two
years after its inception interoperability is still a problem and UN/CEFACT
and OASIS are sponsoring interoperability seminars.  Clearly the work is
not yet finished.

2)   It seems to me that the majority of discussion on this listserv has
been about general discussion topics (of which this thread is an example)
rather than substantive technical questions related to ebXML development
and implementation.  Lots of lists have fairly low signal to noise ratios,
but the relatively low signal on this one makes me wonder about
implementations.

Cheers,

Mike

(diluting the signal with more noise...)
