https://issues.oasis-open.org/issues/?filter=11670 (note that the view can be changed using the box icon at top right; the list view provides the most summary information, without the detail view obscuring the screen space) - when creating tickets, remember to distinguish the following components by how they are described to be used as categories:
https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/UBL/?selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.jira-projects-plugin:components-panel UBL TC next steps - what promotional issues need to be addressed? - UBL 2 is an organic thing that can be grown - what do we do for implementation support? - should we write a companion document of how to use the specification? - industry-specific documentation? - make it easier to find what is relevant without changing the actual specification - how about a Twitter feed of UBL adoption and announcements? - what subject matter issues need to be addressed? - is there a need for XML equivalents to the container messages? -
http://www.smdg.org/itigg/downloads/ - Tim is already addressing the ITFM** messages, the question here is about the CO**** messages - we haven't seen any requests from people wanting XML for containers TC CONCALL SCHEDULE Next meetings: 2015-03-04 Pacific 01:00UTC/20:00EDT, Atlantic 15:00UTC/16:00CEST/10:00EDT Will anyone be requesting a leave of absence in the near future?
