RE: DR027: Audit trails

Yep, my sentiments as well. We need to keep the requirements for audit
trails. Can we combine them so that the requirements become more clear -
somewhat in the lines of

"There must be a way to deal with audit trails of the protocol flow
including the ability to determine a message's path through preceding
intermediates"

cheers

Audit trails are a requirement for many B2B applications
and this is in ebXML.  Consolidation of duplicates is OK,
but it shouldn't be dropped entirely.
