Hmm.  Looks like I read the wrong paper.

Having now re-read the 7 April version, I have one general comment.  I
wonder if we shouldn't be really cautious about "recommendations" at this
stage.  We are still, as a committee, working through the implications of
how to get these different standards to deliver a workable TaxXML
solution, and until we get closer to a conclusion it seems unwise to
recommend what that conclusion is going to be.

Surely it would be more useful to tax administrators out there if - to
repeat my comment in my previous email - we concentrated on analysing and
explaining the overlaps and fitness-for-purpose of the different standards
being proposed.
