Service metadata management goes far beyond what UDDI offers. Effective runtime access of services requires the service registry to be optimal and UDDI falls short here, again.

We compete against Systinet for customers and am happy to see them taken out by Mercury. Great stuff! Infravio will see much more revenue, partnership and other opportunity in 2006 as a result...
