Todd,  you know I usually agree with you but in this case,  I have to
put the record straight.  The guy from Gartner is named Jess Thompson
and surprisingly,  he is in your back yard (Seattle).  He was gracious
enough to set aside time to do an analyst briefing with me and has a
rather extensive knowledge of ebXML.  He quite correctly also sees a few
of the current shortfalls of ebXML and is aware of their pending
solutions.

To be fair,  Gartner has cast a fairly neutral shadow on ebXML and
prefers to let ebXML proof itself.  I find this rather nice compared to
other, less knowledgable analysts who have recently downplayed ebXML's
usefulness.

Gartner is one of the good guys.  Let's try to not burn this bridge.
