Re: [ebxml-mktg-sc] FWD: New Approach to Customer/Supplier Collaboration

David, et al.

The closest thing to an industry association of e-marketplaces that I have 
seen is Open Network for Commerce Exchange or ONCE 
(http://www.connect-once.com/ ).  But before we start propagating the faith 
to this group, we need to get ebXML better prepared to serve its 
needs.  BPSS, CPPs, and CPAs apparently need a little more work. Perhaps a 
strategy would be to engage the participation of ONCE in the technical 
committees while they hammer out the details.
