RE: [ebxml-bp] ebXML ebBP interview, suggested questions

Sacha,

 

The questions are all good - I'd suggest making the business level
questions first - before deep driving into the technical - so 

 

q. What is the envisioned audience for ebBP, what are they doing
today, and why is ebBP in their future?

 

q. I see lots of office walls festooned end-to-end with charts
of Visio and Powerpoint flow diagrams for their entire operations - how
do these relate to the work on ebBP?

 

q. Hasn't this all been tried before by various vendors?  What
makes ebBP different?

Hi ebBP team

As
some of you know I am preparing some ebXML related audio
interviews
with various people from the community.

Monica
asked me to post the questions I will ask the 2 or 3 selected
people
for the interview (currently Monica, Dale and John Y.)

Maybe
there are things you think would be very valuable for
people
interested in ebXML Business Process. So do not hesitate to
post (here
of off list to me) the question you would like to be
answered by one of
the ebXML Business Process
expert.

Regards

Sacha
