I thought I replied to the list but perhaps not. Earl,
nSoftware has an annual maintenance plan for their EDI/AS2 but the minimum cost is $1000. So even the 5 TP license $499 would incur $1,000 of maintenance according to their sales rep. Something is wrong with this if you ask me. So much for the industry standard of 20% of the base cost.
