Alan: Don't get your fur all ruffled over this! Mr. Lyon is confusing disagreement or condescension with "censorship" on the ebxml-dev mailing list. And to my knowledge, no one has ever "picked on" contributors from Asia/Pacific for the sole reason of their wanting to talk about local developments.

Who has prevented you from making your case, and when did it occur? Let me assure you that it has never -- repeat never -- been the policy for the XML/edi list to prevent discussion of XML-related issues. If anyone connected to this list has tried to prevent you from posting messages on XML, e-business, or related issues, please let me know immediately. As one who took part in the initial ebXML development effort, I can tell you that we had excellent participation from Asia, including a meeting in Tokyo (November 2000), and I believe that participation has continued.

Not only this but there is censorship on the mailing lists to prevent people accross Asia/Pacific (especially on ebXML) from talking about local issues and local developments. That's why you don't hear anything. We're working on ebXML on a chip and wireless ebXML. When we ask on the ebXML for other companies to get involved we get our invitations sensored. So much for "Open" development. The fact is, at Global TradeDesk, we see Asia/Pacific as a hotbed for the next development of XML based devices and products where they can be produce affordably and with high quality.
