100cfm -

I don't see a Gorilla evolving in B2B, and we agree on this.

I was speculating that if a Gorilla evolved, that CMRC would be it.

B2B Gorilla status will not be based on unique transaction methodology.

It's the network.

In order to function, B2B will, one way or another, become 1 network, in the "end".

The suppliers will demand it.

CMRC will have the best opportunity to influence the standards for this network, as they are the most advanced in this vein.

regards,
blg

100,

B2B companies have no proprietary IP.

I don't understand.

The software they market is their proprietary, open architecture. To say that B2B companies don't have a proprietary product would be similar to saying that wordprocessing software or spreadsheet software isn't proprietary.

What am I missing in your comment?
