issue: Current Example Inadequate For Specification Document?

Hi,

reading the spec more carefully I have the feeling that the RosettaNet
example (or in general the purchase order scenario) is inadequate for
the core specification documnent.

In fact the example is only very loosely based on RosettaNet. RosettaNet
itself only distributes DTD and also the tag names seem not to match
(e.g. RosettaNet uses GTIN for prodcut identification whereas POItem.xsd
seems to use EANCode).

However, even if we remove the explicit reference to RosettaNet, I
believe that due to the complexity of a purchase order scenario it can
hardly provide a self contained example. Therefore I would prefer a more
trivial example such as a weather forecast, which should be sufficient
to illustrate the three pointers we are about to standardize.

best
  Holger
