Author Anyone doing ISO 8583 in/out of BizTalk? (BizTalk newbie)

Has anyone implemented support for ISO 8583 messages (used by EFT ATM/POS)
into and/or out of BizTalk? Or has anyone implemented IFX message support in
BizTalk (a new XML-based EFT messaging standard).

Is EFT message switching/authorization an "appropriate" use for BizTalk?
(ie, is BizTalk fast enough and reliable enough?)

I see there's a newsgroup for BizTalk Financial Services Accelerator, but it
doesn't have any postings; it is perhaps intended for the EFT world?

Thanks,

DT

Honestly, I don't know about this, but it is something I'm very interested
on as well.

the Financial Services Accelerator is mostly geared towards SWIFT support
(it is now called, I believe, BizTalk Accelerator for SWIFT
http://www.microsoft.com/biztalk/ev...ift/default.asp).

Out company has been internally discussing the feasibility of writing a
"serializer/deserializer" in .NET that would take an 8583 message as input
and return a .NET class, and vice-versa.

I wonder if there's a commerical market for such a component? Seems to me
that having this functionality encapsulated into a drop-in .NET class (and/or
as a Java class) would be very helpful to anyone having to deal with 8583.
