BizTalk Technical Reviews

Consumers will also be enabled to conduct price and product comparisons on MSN using the CompareNet product information service. Microsoft plans to charge a referral fee or commission on each sale completed using MSN once the service is fully up and running.

BizTalk, along with other framework initiatives will be reviewed in detail with system developers at TechEd in Dallas, Texas on May 21-18, 1999. BizTalk schemas will be reviewed with customers, vendors, industry consortia, and other interested parties beginning in the second half of 1999. Once these documents are released, Microsoft will make them available to the public for review and comment on the Microsoft Web site.

Meanwhile, I''m keeping my eyes peeled on any new initiatives that affect XML and e-commerce. As new standards are released, I''ll download them, pore through them, and try to help you to better understand what they mean and how to implement them.

Keep those cards and letters coming!
