RE: BSI in a Nutshell

We should probably truncate this discussion before Ken comes back from
"winter" break and feels the need to contribute further.

You've hit the nail on the head. Coordinating business processes and data
semantics are with us regardless of underlying technology. Treating them as
out of scope *in discussions about transport and mapping* is therefore
completely appropriate.
Well that nail anyway. We don't use BSI here, I've never heard about it
from our trading partners, so it remains an academic exercise. I am still
keeping half an eye open for a way to use it in a business relationship that
would benefit from automation but is not a candidate for our conventional
EDI efforts. It remains the superior solution to the problem, in my mind.
