I suggest you ask this on the relevant IETF mailing list (the list of 
the former EAI WG). Just today there was a report of a company that's 
releasing an EAI product. The archives are here:
http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/ima/current/maillist.html
And this is the link for subscription:
https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ima

I'm not sure you'll find a direct answer, but you'll find others with 
similar needs. See you there.

Regards,   Martin.

P.S.: Because the RFCs are baked, the mailing list is currently very low 
volume.
