Ken Holman commented on UBL-55:
-------------------------------

I had that thought, but then considered that Pre-award might have already discounted such a naming pair.

Perhaps TenderStatus can be unbidden and simply issued without the need for a request.  Then it wouldn't be a response if there was no request, but someone needing one could still enquire about the status and get it.  It would set a naming precedent for a document type that can be issued with or without a request.

But that was just supposition on my part that I was going to bring up at the next Pre-award meeting.  Certainly if TenderStatus can only be returned in response to an enquiry, then I would push for the naming pair to be Request/Response.

TenderStatus is new in 2.2 so the naming could go either way depending on how the document is being used.

> Please let me know if there are any objections.
> An easily overlooked issue ... we are supposed to be using Oxford English.
