Grace...

Can you or anyone else help me understand a couple of things.

Below is an article about the B2B Healthcare Industry but it briefly mentions a number of other industries as well.

In it, there is a comment as follows:

>>Another problem: developing the technology infrastructure that would allow for electronic commerce across different Net markets, even if they do use common standards. Companies such as WebMethods (WEBM) and Ironside Technologies focus primarily on connecting businesses to online exchanges, but there are few, if any, b-to-b infrastructure companies developing technology to allow different exchanges to transact with each other. <<

Now where does EXLN fit into this? Does WEBM gets mentioned because they appear to be doing a better job of marketing their brand?

In addition, doesn't EXLN's SW allow "different exchanges to transact with each other"? If so, EXLN MUST get their message out to the movers and shakers in this market.

The whole article I feel is quite good and puts up some warning signs about the B2B business growth. It can be found at:

Thanks
