e-business initiatives (ebXML and UDDI) that are also based on XML. (ebXML is a
UN initiative.)
This open forum will include a panel discussion

government, standards bodies, consortia, and community processes in defining
standards for the 21st century. There will be open discussion with the audience
and panel members.
