RE: EDI over http (2).

[Peter Rawlinson <PeterR@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We are currently using EDI over HTTP Post.  Craig, are you working on
EDI field formats over the Internet, or possible transport protocols?
In moving away from VANs and into the Internet, there is more
possibility of buyer/supplier relationships forming which were not
present before.  This could cause huge translation problems for
suppliers who currently are very specific to the requirements of their
established buyers, especially in 850 formats.
