Support Page maintenance

Support Page candidate for this week:

"SystML provides a range of forms for simple online and

offline creation of UBL electronic business

documents. These forms use W3C XForms CSS 3 technologies

and as such require a suitably enabled browser such as

Firefox with the XForms extension

(http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xforms/download.html). [Note

that care should be taken to use this browser in a manner

appropriate for the status of this extension.] The

documents available can be found via the SystML 'Business

Web' page http://www.systml.co.uk/content/view/43/54/ and

are part of an opensource project XForms For UBL hosted

on sourceForge with a GPL 2 license

(http://sourceforge.net/projects/xforms4ubl)."

ACCEPTED, JB to wordsmith lightly.

Hotels

Tower, but it's sold out.

than 1 block away from the meeting place); MG, BH, and AS

are booked there:
