Subject: RE: ebXML PR event 12/12 -- PoC strawman proposal


All, 

As time is running out on deciding on the final scenarios for the 12/12
(only a week from tomorrow!) ebXML press event, I'd like to get a thumbs up
or down from each of the listed participants on the scenarios proposed below
(which I sent out last week Wednesday). By noon tomorrow (Tuesday,
California time), I'd like to know whether you agree with the scenarios
(suggest others if you don't) and whether we will indeed be able to count on
your organization to participate. 

The 'core' team will then go ahead and decide what screens to show as well
as what accompanying slides.

The list of participants in the demo is currently as follows:

Fujitsu, IBM, Interwoven, IPNet, Netfish, NTT-COM, Savvion, Sterling
Commerce, Sun/Cisco, Viquity,  XML Solutions.

I'd like to get the go-ahead from all (some of you have already done so, so
no need to re-confirm). Thanks for your prompt attention.

-Philippe
