Based on the feedback I have received so far it appears that RosettaNet 
PIP3A4 is likely to be the baseline BP candidate for an interoperability 
event in San Jose.

The goal will therefore be to attempt some level (the level has yet to be 
determined) of interoperability using ebXML Transport between multiple 
vendors. As I mentioned in an earlier e-mail I would like to see 
implementations at various levels of maturity participating. The intent is 
to be as inclusive as possible without compromising the overall ebXML 
goals. The focus is engineering rather than marketing and constructive 
participation will be the metric for measuring progress.

For those folks still coming up to speed, the ebXML TR&P WG has agreed to 
provide technical support via a weekly conference call. This of course is 
in addition to the normal mechanism of posting to their e-mail list. If you 
would like to take advantage of this offer please let me know and I will 
coordinate. Tentatively Wednesdays at 9 a.m. Pacific time has been 
scheduled - the hosting of this meeting will rotate.

I propose having a weekly conference call specifically on poc - Sun will 
host it this week. Please e-mail me asap if you are interested so I can 
reserve the appropriate number of lines. I propose 9 a.m. Pacific time on 
7/21/00. Let me know if  you would prefer some other time/day.

Regards,
Nick
