Overall Project Progress
Technical
- Public consultation of eDelivery AS4 2.0 and SMP 2.0 profiles ended on . Following feedback received for the consultation, an internal analysis was started and preliminary conclusions already suggest that:
- the specifications will have to be modified in non-trivial ways and a new public consultation will be necessary, delaying the adoption by at least half a year.
- an interoperability event will be organised to allow testing of pilot implementations of the new specifications in order to obtain technical validation.
