ISSUE-1.

New draft reads:
"Semantics
The semantics of the information must be agreed beforehand, so all  
exchanging parties have a common understanding of the meaning of the  
data exchanged. At the international level, this can be a complex  
topic since some legal concepts may differ from one country to the  
other. The final goal is to be able to interpret data consistently  
across the different organizations and platforms involved in the data  
exchange."

On second read of comment wrt this issue, I propose to replace the  
first sentence for:
"Semantic agreement in advance facilitates all exchanging parties to  
have a common understanding of the meaning of the data exchanged .

I think this would satisfy comments by Owen and Vassilios, but Rick  
may want to re-phrase it differently. Rick?
