Happy to learn that the EDIINT protocols are "widely used"!

Always wondered if they had any success in outcompeting X.400 and 
proprietary file transfer protocols in that niche.... it's one of the 
communities that came to the IETF, worked for a while, achieved what they 
came for, and went away again.

(the ediint-as2 document has been languishing in "IESG evaluation"-like 
states since 2000, according to the tracker.... seemingly no energy to 
finish... but seems to be "almost out the door" now...)

No objection to removing it from our list.
