UBL 2.1 SCHEMAS

    GKH: There has been an update to one of the freight documents;
    new snapshot will be out shortly.

UBL 2.1 SAMPLE INSTANCES

    GKH: Three new instances have been received from Audun.  Now in
    the process of removing unused/irrelevant namespace
    declarations (e.g., CCTS namespaces) that have no use in
    instances.

    During a brief discussion of automatic instance generation, BH
    reported that Oxygen allows the generation of instances that
    contain only mandatory elements and also allows levels of
    recursion to be specified.

UBL 2.1 CODE LISTS

    See
    http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201005/msg00000.html

    GKH: The first statement is correct; in UBL 2.1, schemas have
    no code list enumerations.  Regarding 2:

    2) For the TC perspective there are only two kind of code
       lists: Those we recommend for usage, and those we don't know
       of or are agreed on a different level, including bilateral
       agreements.

    GKH: The first category should be "those we include in the
    distribution val directory", because we're not necessarily
    recommending these lists for use.  [Operationally,] the two
    code list categories are: 1. those engaged by XSLT in the val
    directory, and 2. an additional set that people might want to
    add to the default value check; but in neither case are code
    lists in 2.1 part of schema validation.  This is why 2.1 has
    two categories rather than three: the CEFACT lists formerly
    embedded in the schemas are now included with the others.

    JB: So there is no change to the directory structure already
    adopted, just input for the documentation.

       AGREED to leave out the word "recommend" from the eventual
       writeup and revisit the draft wording in the PRD1 review.

    Regarding statement 3:

    3) For all code values the TC will try to provide value
       examples to give the user an idea of what is meant for this
       element.

       AGREED that this would pose a serious resource challenge,
       but we will revisit in PRD2.

UBL 2.1 DOCUMENTATION

    JB: Still waiting draft from TM.  ACTION: JB to ping TM to
    confirm that not all doc is in yet.

    look for possible differences between the present rules and the
    ones arrived at in Montreal.

2010 UBL TC F2F MEETING SCHEDULE

    9-13 August 2010 (the week following Balisage 2010) in

    KB: Propose that we hold both the February 2011 TC meeting and
    a UBL International Conference in Lima.  The Peruvian Internal
    Revenue Service are almost ready to introduce eInvoicing; Peru
    will be the first adoption of UBL as a de jure standard in this
    region.  The IRS and the Prime Minister's office have offered
    to host.

       AGREED to tentatively schedule the February 2011 TC meeting
       and UBL International Conference in Lima.
