>I believe that for many people, the term "market" strongly suggests
many-to-many interactions as with Ariba's Marketplace, Commerce One's
MarketSite, etc. I suspect that those who object to the term wish to avoid
the implication that ebXML is focusing (perhaps exclusively) on such
interactions.

Tony,
Exactly - I had no idea this is NOT what they meant!
From Murrays comment on Netmarket - this is now clear.
Conclusion - market - we're simply talking here about
any pairwise commerce activity centered around a
vertical service or product. I find that confusing.
Market to me implies much more than a simple stall
or stand model, most importantly it implies plural.
Maybe marketactivity is better, since it implies singular,
as in a marketactivity?
