Hello Dorris,
firstly let me congratulate to the release of new Hermes.

Our Webswell Connect extends functionality of Hermes it includes 
1) Reading and processing of complete CPAs from Registry/Repository, (it
is important for distributed projects )
2) Reading AS2 Partnerships from Registry/Repository
3) EDI style control files for reading and writing messages
4) Installer that includes tomcats, Registry/Repository, database
systems and supporting tools
5) Settings of all ports and parameters inside installer

and other features

We would like to cooperate with you more closely and donate some of our
functionality to Hermes.
When do you plan to release Hermes on CVS?
Thank you for your answer
 
Ladislav
