[Stephen Green]

(cc Sue Probert with respect to eDocs idea below) Also, has anyone thought of mapping UBL instances to docbook? If there were a docbook profile which facilitated such mapping it might help in standardizing UBL human interface representation. A thought for HISC? Plus, has anyone thought of standardizing a tabular representation of, say, UN edocs (as alternative to absolute positioning on a page). Then UBL could be mapped to that. Maybe that's one for UN/CEFACT: Say in Invoice the Invoice Number is positioned in cell B2, the Invoice date in cell D2, the labels adjacent, etc. It could work just as well with spreadsheets as with HTML or CALS tables, etc and therefore could facilitate Invoice representation in docbook and mappings to UBL, CEFACT documents, etc. Best regards Stephen Green Partner SystML, http://www.systml.co.uk Tel: +44 (0) 117 9541606 http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew+22:37 .. and voice > Hi Betty > > Many thanks.
