Rainer and Scott,
If you are looking for the why of ebXML, I suggest you read the requirements document.

Sorry to interrupt you discussion, but as someone new to ebXML and these discussions I just wanted to support what Scott Beach wrote:
<snip>
-----Original Message----- From: Beach, Scott [[3]mailto:Scot...@goodrich.com] [...] ebXML simply lacks an "elevator speech" that is compelling to IT executives. Web services doesn't suffer from this same marketing paralysis. Another case where better technologically doesn't correlate to more successful. </snip>
As a newcomer, I found the ebXML documentation rather overwhelming. Besides the requirements document there seems to be no overview. At least I couldn't find one with a clear message that I could use to present ebXML to business people or technology managers. Such docs would really help, especially in comparisons to other technologies/standards.
To me it seems that currently the task to explain ebXML in a concise manner is delegated to sites like WebServices.org, where many people first hear about ebXML. (Just my impression)
