Title: RE: [ubl-lcsc] Newest version of the OO-design position paper.
Gunther,

But all (and really all) XML instances will be processed by applications and tools only. Only the designers, developers and support peoples are reading less XML instances partially. Therefore, we have to think about which kind of "containers" and "groups" are necessary and efficient for applications (not for humans).
 
 
I don't think this fits with what we have identified as our core principles. To wit -
 
 

�         Legibility - UBL documents should be human-readable and reasonably clear

�         Simplicity - The design of UBL must be as simple as possible (but no simpler).

Hello Joe,
 
I do not know, why we need this high-level containers like "Header, Summary, Party etc.". This is a separation for humans, because all layouts of the hard copies of business documents are divided in this strucute.
 
Kind regards,
