[REBOL] Re: XML document formats?

From: rasmussen:bryan::gmail at: 22-Mar-2006 13:05

No I don't use Rebol in relation to XML (for the reasons outlined below), I don't really use the language any more but keep an eye on the list in case it gets support for things I want in which case I would be taking it back up of course (mostly Rebol for me fit in the position of a good network administration language, since I work mostly in standardization nowadays, and standardization of XML languages specifically there's not that much I have to use it for - this is not to take away from what others use it for of course). Well I work for the government organization that does the specification of the Danish implementation of UBL, basically decisions to use it have been political as most decisions of government standards must be - how much does one think the standard will improve, move forward etc. etc. As for the power of UBL, I would say that UBL 2.0 will be powerful enough to represent most things that most people want to do with ERP systems. Invoicing, Orders, Response Documents, Credit notes, etc. etc. Also, politically speaking there is some indication that it will be the business document standard in Scandinavia, Great Britain. Lots of Asian support, European support, etc. If I were you I would look at the Small Business Subset of UBL specifically, don't let the name fool you, it's not just for Small Businesses.
