MarcXchange - proposal for a new standard for MARC-records

To ZIG-list

In these months the ISO committee for Technical Interoperability -
Information and Documentation votes on a proposal for a New Work Item
about a XML schema to wrap MARC-records. For many years ISO2709 has
worked well, but today it is necessary to use XML in many cases. 

That's the reason for the proposal for MarcXchange.
