[ebxmlms-general] ebXML Interoperability

[Martin S. <ebx...@sc...>]

Hello all,

Even though I have to admit that I was not very active on this list during the 
last month, my enterprise (and me) were busy in adopting Hermes as our ebXML MSH 
solution for a product using this facility. However, as we are working in a sort 
of "conservative" market when it comes to open source, and are also confronted 
with competitors who (of course) try to sell their own commercial ebXML MSHs, I 
have to prepare arguments in favor of open standards and ebXML interoperability 
in general and may be also in favor of the hermes solution.

Does anybody have knowledge of
- "success stories" when it comes to ebXML interoperability in general, 
especially live projects, where different ebXML MSHs are happily working 
together? (Hermes doesn't necessarily be involved)
- "success stories" of Hermes itself communicating with MSHs of other vendors, 
especially live projects?

Furthermore
- what are "typical issues" or what issues could you imagine, when it comes to 
trying to plug together two MSHs of different vendors?

Special thanks to Patrick Yee, who already helped me a lot with this (Hi, Patrick!).

And thank you all a lot in advance,
Martin.
