https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/ubl/201307/msg00009.html
The standardization process continues with the preparation of a 60-day public review and then a 14-day membership ballot to promote the Committee Specification to be an OASIS Standard as was accomplished for UBL 2.0.
On June 22, 2013 the UBL Technical Committee begins the week-long vote for Committee Specification Draft 5 of Universal Business Language Version 2.1 dated 19 June 2013 [1] with Non-Material Changes [2] to be a Committee Specification.
We are in the process of implementing the Freight Invoice.
Can we safely make use of draft 3 or will there be further changes to this?
When can we expect the final version to be made available?
Kind regards,
Bent Christensen

Why this is significant is because in 2013 we will see a mature set of both transport infrastructure and message content standards that have evolved directly from the efforts of those early pioneers.
With ebMS 3.0 (and its various profiles) and UBL (about to publish UBL 2.1) the industry can finally claim a proven framework for eBusiness using XML technologies based on open standards.
The European fashion and high-end industries are global leaders accounting for 10% of European exports.
