Re: [ebxml-dev] ebXML for Thesis

[Thomas Lee <ytlee@cecid.hku.hk>]

Dear Neville,

We have an open-source implementation of ebXML Message Service called 
Hermes. You may find more information at:

http://www.freebxml.org
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ebxmlms/

Please see if it fits your needs. You can subscribe the mailing lists at 
the following for any technical questions on the software:

http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=56612

We are also from the University and we do encourage students to take 
projects on ebXML. Students are the future stars leading the development 
and adoption of ebXML.

Regards,
Thomas
