Yes, RosettaNet has announced that they are going to adopt ebMS in 
future release of RNIF (=3.0). You can find ebXML's press release at:

http://www.ebxml.org/news/pr_20010427.htm

But question is when will be the 'future'... Many of RosettaNet trading 
partners still uses RNIF 1.0 and apparently they are mostly satisfied 
with it. There's no good reason for RosettaNet to develop RNIF 3.0 very 
soon (even if it is as simple as defining ebXML binding).
