RE: X12 sees the writing on the wall.
Sure, but would you feel the same way if you were the CIO responsible for
that EDI system? Would you rather be vulnerable to proprietary in-house
systems built by employees who will eventually leave and take the expertise
with them, or pay the fees and have the "insurance" of being able to call
the vendor or a staffing firm and get some contract support in there asap if
your SME splits?
Would you really be willing to risk the data that is the lifeblood of your
corporation like that? I don't drive without auto insurance, and if I were
the CIO, I would make sure my EDI was running on an industry-standard
platform.

You know, I suppose I would rather learn a few things well - like Java,
Perl and XSD schemas - than to struggle with some of these expensive
proprietary EDI mapping systems with their onerous annual maintenance
fees, arcane GUI systems and obscure macro languages.
