Joe,
Excellent post. And it's not up to any of us to point out whether there are others in the marketplace; it's up to EDIG to show THEY can enter the marketplace.
I understand about frameworks and the vetting process. I have never heard of one taking so long, especially when EDIG has told us they are already showing it to customers and are going to rapidly commercialize (sounds suspiciously like monetize). I think if it were going to happen it would have happened by now.
And let's get real about this demo thing. A demo does whatever you want it to. We get business from a competitor that kills it with demos, sells it, and it doesn't work. When the demo becomes a sale i'll pay attention. Until then a demo, especially one as far in the past as this one, is BS.
