Title: RE: [ebxml-dev] Global Commerce Initiative?

Dear Andrzej,

GCI closely works with EAN.UCC developing standards for the for supply-chain
related processes.

EAN.UCC for it's part is largely presented in UN/CEFACT Working Groups.

Kind Regards,

The full article can be found here:

and discusses CPFR (Collaborative Planning, Forecasting, and
Replenishment) in the retail world.

I am curious as to whether the GCI initiative has any ebXML participation or
content?
