[NTLUG:Discuss] Open Source EDI recommendation needed.

[Richard Geoffrion]

EDI - Electronic Data Interchange


Anyone have recommendations for some EDI software?  There seems to be
several search results for 'EDI' out there on freshmeat, but most of it has
to do with Medical HIPPA compliance stuff.  Is there a 'standard/generic'
EDI program out there?   I'm sorta looking to find at least SOME of the same
features that exist for the Win32 product 'Softshare ECS'
(http://www.softshare.com/software/ecs/ )

The term I hear alot is AS1..only I can't find AS1 on freshmeat. I don't
know
yet if AS1 is a requirement...but I'm still googling for options.

hmm.. I wonder if one could just tie an EDI translator into an email client?
After all, that seems to be essential what EDI transfers do...transmit
encrypted packets via email.
