Gorillawise, I was thinking about WalMart and AS2.

UCCNet is one dance that I'm sitting out... for now.

99.9% of our clients were forced by other Trading Partners to put their UPCs
into the QRS Catalog. QRS will be synching all their data with UCCNet at no
extra charge (above the already high charges their clients are now paying).
For that reason, we're recommending our clients let QRS synch with UCCNet.

Of course, I could rant for hours about ECCC (the Canadian equivalent of UCC)
and how one client was forced to join, only to have the whole implementation
shelved for a few years. Soon enough, they will have the privilege of paying
ECCC about $10.00 per UPC per year. What a scam!
