Re: [ebxmlms-general] Status and future of Hermes1

[Torsten K. <tor...@sa...>]

Hi,
=20
having been a satisfied user of Hermes 1 for quite some time, I have to
admit that a refarctored and open source (Apache license) version would =
be
nice.
Lately it struck me that that might be less work than one might think. =
E.g.
using the Spring Framework and a lot of the ASF stuff, this might =
actually
be accomplished in, say, three month or less.
=20
Things I missed in Hermes 1:
=20
- CPA support
- RegRep support, especially with regard to CPA handling; I am not =
saying
that one must absolutely use a RegRep, but maybe the way CPAs are stored
could be abstracted a bit
- the Hermes client/server HTTP interface, well, I wonder whether =
something
could be abstracted there as well
- cluster support; I think that enterprises would appreciate =
fault-tolerance
and load-balancing features
=20
Stuff I've thought about:
Apache James could be used to handle SMTP, thus getting rid of polling
POP/IMAP altogether
=20
What is going on with version 3 of ebMS? Is that actually going to be
implemented and used by anyone? Somehow, I have yet to come across a
scenario in which version 2 is insufficient.
To put it a different way, I'd rather spend time hooking ebMS up to the
other parts of the framework (CPP/A, RR, BP) than fixing something which =
I
don't think is broken to begin with.
=20
best regards
Torsten

Torbj=F6rn,
=20
You must be a mind-reader!  I have been discussing this off list =
privately
with stakeholders.
=20
We should have something to report in the next week or so.
=20
I agree that there are two different code bases doing two different jobs =
-
and there is a need for both going forward.
=20
I appreciate your support for Hermes 1 - as you note there are still =
more
refinements possible - and hopefully we will have good news shortly.

Thanks, DW

Hi all,
=20
We are wondering what the status and future of Hermes1 is.
=20
Is there anyone else but us interested in maintaining and updating =
Hermes 1?
=20
Does anyone have any plans to accomodate the new version 3 of ebxml-MS
specification in Hermes 1?
=20
Hermes 2 has so far not been an option for us, everything added to =
hermes 2
is less than useless and nothing in it is better than hermes 1. Also, =
the
restriction to postgresql only is a big fly in the ointment, too. We =
have
hopes for a nice rewrite and refactoring of hermes 1 instead.
=20
Best Regards,
=20
