Hello, The ebCore Party Id Type specification ( http://docs.oasis-open.org/ebcore/PartyIdType/v1.0/ ) is currently an OASIS CS. To promote its adoption in some initiatives I'm involved in, it could be useful to promote the specification to OASIS Standard. A candidate OASIS Standard needs a number of statements of successful use. Since the ebCore specification is essentially a convention to set certain string values, it does not require anything special in a product. So any XML schema that has elements or attributes to encode party type can use it. The specification has examples for ebMS2, ebMS3, CPPA2, UBL, UN/CEFACT XML, SBDH, OAGIS and XBRL. Any product that supports such a schema can can support ebCore Party Id. Various other specifications, such as the OASIS BDX Location specification and some CEN workshop agreements (textile, e-invoicing), reference ebCore. I would be interested in any feedback on this, on the TC mailing lists or privately to me. I would in particular be interested in hearing from member organizations that would want to submit a statement of successful use. Cross posted to OASIS ebCore, ebXML Messaging, UBL and BDXR mailing lists, sorry for duplicates .. Kind Regards, Pim van der Eijk
