I doubt that very many people will abandon .NET, WebLogic, WebSphere, etc.
in favor of an ebMS solution. I know that BEA provides some ebXML support as
an add-on product to WebLogic, but what news from IBM and Microsoft? Does
anyone expect that these vendors plan to provide full support for an ebXML
infrastructure?
Based on current product offerings, I think it's fair to say that ebXML and
Web services require different infrastructures.
So I take it that you are requesting that the TN provide a little more
background information on what is meant by ebXML and Web services
infrastructure? That seems eminently reasonable.
