Subject: SV: FTP protocol support and use


Maybe it would be a good idea to have some library where ebxml bindings to
different protocols could be found. Is there already such a resource. That
seems like the kind of useful tool that spurs technology adoption.

The only problems I could foresee with FTP with regards to 
interoperability is ftp command sequence and Passive mode.  If the 
message is a full mime message, and people stuck to a set command 
sequence (e.g. cd ebxml; put <mid>) then things should be fairly 
straight forward.
