Title: RE: [ubl-lcsc] Newest version of the OO-design position paper.



Gunther,
 
You wrote - 

 
But 
all (and really all) XML instances will be processed by applications and tools 
only. Only the designers, developers and support peoples are reading less XML 
instances partially. Therefore, we have to think about which kind of 
"containers" and "groups" are necessary and efficient for applications (not for 
humans).
 
 
I 
don't think this fits with what we have identified as our core principles. To 
wit -
 
 
�         
Legibility - UBL documents should be human-readable and reasonably 
clear
�         
Simplicity - The design of UBL must be as simple as possible (but 
no simpler).

Hello Joe,
  
 
  
I do 
  not know, why we need this high-level containers like "Header, Summary, Party 
  etc.". This is a separation for humans, because all layouts of the hard copies 
  of business documents are divided in this strucute. 
  
 
  
Kind 
  regards,
  
    Gunther
