RE: updated requirements document

You commented ...

>>>The text in "Trading Party Agreement" used both "Party" and "Partner".
For now, I have opted to change "Party" to "Partner".<<<

I really think that having two terms for the same thing only causes
confusion. 

Both the TRP group and "core components" use the term "Party" rather than
"Partner" in all their documentation. Since TP came along last doesn't it
make sense to for the TP group to conform to pre-existing usage within ebXML
?? 

Thoughts?

On another point I think we should just use "process" rather than "business
process"

Otherwise it looks good !

Subject: updated requirements document


I have updated the Requirements document based on the recent responses to
the previous version.  I especially want to thank David Burdett for changes
and additions which considerably improve the document.

Please review and comment at your earliest convenience.  I plan to ask the
attendees at tomorrow's conference call to decide if we can consider that
we have completed work on the requirements so that we can move on to the
next stage.

If there are any ebXML formalities that must be observed for the
requirements document, someone please enlighten me.

Regards,
Marty
