I don't spend much time following product names. Do you mean a
product which implements the MAP/TOP protocols? If so, the answer
currently is no. There was an active project in CIM last year
which lost its funding and was discontinued. They were working
on a MAP/TOP AM using the MAP/TOP CMIP which is older than DNA CMIP
(I.E. and thus non-conformant with the IS CMIP). We worked with
them up until they were unfunded.

MAP has been pretty much a NO-OP for the last few years (since the ENE
trade show), but behind the scenes, I think it's gathered some
strength. MAP stands for the "manufacturing automation protocol", and
like Wally mentioned, it's using a OSI like CMIP like management
protocol which is non-conformant with IS CMIP. I recently caught up
with my 'trade rag' reading from May thru August, and noticed several
articles on MAP - ie, it may show up on some RFC's soon. From GM
especially. I'd think that if there is significant business available,
that the T&N-EIC would be the direction to look for building the
business case for development of the MAP-AM.
