[ebxml-mktg] ebXML Name

[Lisa Seaburg <xmlgeek@gmi.net>]

Having been part of the ebXML initiative from the beginning, I think the
name never had a problem.  The idea that the name has lost something
over the last nine months is quite true.  IMHO the problems that the
political backbiting and power struggling created is part of the current
problem.  Its the 90 day feed tube theory.  What you do in business
today will affect your bottom line in 90 days.  Wise words, from some
college professor somewhere!  Having individuals fight openly about
ebXML did not do it any good, there needs to be a more united approach.

The comment from Stephen McConnell about ownership not being what it
once was, is right on.  When OASIS and UN/CEFACT were in this together,
I think it gave it more credibility.  The fact that they are not
separated, and handling separate pieces, gives the impression of
division.
