Subject: RE: Fwd: [ebxml-dev] Gartner and ebXML


 From the context I'm not sure whose comments Mr. Sing found offensive, but 
I'll go ahead and apologize for mine in case anyone took offense.  My 
comment was a bit flippant, but certainly not intended to offend or inflame.

I may be kind of "old school" in this, but I have always felt that if a 
standard satisfied a real need among its user community then it would sell 
itself and not need any marketing (my apologies to Karl, Carol, and the 
other good folks at OASIS!).  Mr. Sing's counterpoint to marketing concerns 
about Gartner was an appropriate reality check.   If the needs of Mr. Sing 
and others like him are met, then the Gartner's of the world will be taken 
care of as well.

Regards,

Mike
