Towards eDelivery 2.0 profiles: Insights from Interoperability Forum
The eDelivery Interoperability Forum meeting on 29 February 2024 gathered solution providers and technical experts to share insights and updates on the eDelivery 2.0 profiles. We are immensely thankful to everyone who participated and contributed to the discussions.
During the session, Bogdan Dumitriu, eDelivery project officer, took an in-depth look at the feedback from the 2023 public consultation on the eDelivery AS4 and SMP 2.0 profiles.
On top of the feedback itself, the eDelivery team also considered additional features for the profiles. Pim van der Eijk, our standards expert, presented all the key updates to the eDelivery specifications, including the introduction of new profiles like the eDelivery BDXL 2.0 and ebCore Party Id 2.0.
All these updates aim to enhance interoperability, which is a core value for eDelivery. And an open dialogue lets the eDelivery team commit to responding to the the community's input and refine our approaches.
Looking ahead, Bogdan Dumitriu outlined the timeline for adopting the new specifications:
- Between 8 March and 8 April, eDelivery invites you to send feedback on all new versions of the four profiles. For details, see Public consultation on eDelivery 2.0 Specifications.
- On 11 & 25 June, eDelivery organises interoperability sessions (we will share details soon).
Our roadmap for the first half of year includes also the next eDelivery Interoperability Forum meeting, scheduled for 18 April 2024.
For those who couldn't join us or wish to revisit the discussions on 29 February, the presentation slides and notes from the meeting are available at eDelivery Interoperability Forum. 29 February 2024.
We express our profound gratitude to all attendees for their invaluable contributions. Your engagement and feedback drive the continuous improvement of the eDelivery specifications. Together, we're shaping a more interoperable and efficient future for digital communication.
We look forward to seeing you at the next Interoperability Forum meeting.
