FWIW, I recall us having a discussion on this a while back (1.5-2 years
ago?), but a quick search of our archives did not turn up anything. I
seem to recall that Nikola brought it up.

> Hi All,
> Ted Haas has contacted me and is interested in having a
> discussion on exploring synergy between the UNSPSC
> (http://www.unspsc.org/) and ebXML.
> I have invited him to join us at our January 12th telecon to
> talk about this. Here is part of his e-mail:
>
> I think a good first step forward would be to talk and then
> see if creating a mapping tool for importing UNSPSC versions
> might be a good next step.
> This would tie EBXML in at the horizontal level and gain you
> benefit in financial applications where the UNSPSC is
> embedded. I suspect the UNSPSC would also want to highlight
> this on their website as well :-)
>
> The reason behind the mapping tool is that there are numerous
> versions out there being used by a myriad of companies. The
> UNSPSC offers the versions as they are released for free and
> they come in a couple of formats so the parsing should be
> easy We might even talk them into publishing future versions
> with an as EBXML registry compliant artifact as well:-)
>
> Well I don't want to go too far down the road without getting
> your thoughts.
>
> I have forwarded the January 12th meeting information to
> Ted. Please be thinking about questions, etc. for a
> constructive discussion.
