Date: Sat, 08 Sep 2001 01:45:33 -0400 From: Martin W Sachs <[email protected]> Let's be careful. IBM MQSeries is a proprietary protocol and implementation that assumes, at least for the purposes of reliable messaging, that all nodes on the path have it. That enables it to guarantee exactlyOnce delivery with a minumum of fuss. ebXML does not have the luxury of that assumption. We can't make any assumptions on the implementations of any of the nodes. Why is that? Why should we treat a node as an IM if it does not contain an implementation of the ebXML MS protocol? Can we assume that the "to" node correctly implements the ebXML MS protocol? If so, why can't we make the same assumption about any node that we treat as an IM?
