Thanks for the background oren. So far I like what I see and appreciate = the effort that has been put into it. I'm sure I'll have a lot more = questions and hopefully some contributions too. -- Bud -----Original Message----- From: qui...@li...

Subject: Re: [Quickfixj-users] Implementing Custom Logons QuickFIX/J Documentation: http://www.quickfixj.org/documentation/ QuickFIX/J Support: http://www.quickfixj.org/support/ It's pretty much just a play on quick fix. As in, "I need FIX =20 connectivity now, I wish there was some sort of quick fix." When =20 were choosing the name, and QuickFIX was the most likely candidate, =20 some guy in one of the financial rags in regards to implementing the =20 fix protocol said something along the lines of "there is no quick =20 fix". That sold it for us. From then on if you needed FIX =20 connectivity, there would be a quick fix. In part it is the =20 simplicity of getting up and running from a code standpoint, but also =20 from a licensing, accounting, distribution etc. You just don't have =20 to go through any departments to get up and running. A single =20 developer can start prototyping right away without dealing with any =20 of these or asking anyones permission. --oren >> P.S.
