[step-manufacturing] XML or P21 data exchange testing at Hershey

[Martin Hardwick]

All,

Hope you are having a good summer.

We are preparing software for the CAM to CNC data exchange testing 
that is to take place at the Hershey meeting in October. The software 
consists of code that can be used to create STEP-NC data from CAM 
systems, and a viewing/translation system that can be used to verify the data.

Before releasing the software we would like to know if you would 
prefer to test P21 data exchange or P28 (XML) data exchange in this 
round of testing. Our opinion is that XML data exchange testing would 
be more interesting.

It would be very helpful if you could let us know your preference.

Thank you very much for your continuing support of STEP-NC
