[ebxml-mktg] RE: [ebxml-dev] UBL Schemas Released for Public Review

Rainer,
 
My apologies for not responding sooner ( I have been skiing in Colorado
and at the UBL meeting taking place this week in Denver).
 
Absolutely, there is material that shows the direct relationship between
UBL and CCTS.  I would encourage you to have a look at the plenary
presentation I gave at XML 2002 in Baltimore.  Let me know and I will send
it to you.
 
Is there any way you can send me the article, or author's name/email so I
can provide clarification?
 
Mark

	Mark,
	
	is there material showing this? I'm asking because a recent,
rather positive
	article about ebXML in "Computerwoche" (IDG's German edition of
	Computerworld) mentions an unclear or competitive relationship
betwen CC and
	UBL.
