Looking for information on EDI

Hello.  I'm looking for any available information on EDI (Electronic
Data Interchange).  That's about the extent I know about it; I'm told
it is an international standard file format (which explains why I'm
posting here).  Please, could anyone point me in the right direction?
If you have any information, please e-mail me: jberman@cs.oberlin.edu.
Thank you very much.

I'm posting the answer so others can benefit (or correct it, if I've
got something wrong).


There is a mailing list about EDI. Here is the information I have:
EDI-L%UCCVMA.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU
 
   Mailing list for discussion of Electronic Data Interchange issues.  The
   list will discuss electronic transmission and receipt of business
   documentation including purchase orders, invoices, payment, academic
   transcripts, standardized test scores.  ANSI X12 and international EDIFACT
   standards will also be discussed.
 
   Monthly archives will be maintained; contact the Coordinator for access
   information.
 
   BitNet users can subscribe by sending the following command to
   LISTSERV@UCCVMA via mail or interactive message:
      SUB EDI-L your_full_name
   where "your_full_name" is your name.  For example:
      SUB EDI-L Joan Doe
   Non-BitNet subscribers can join by sending the above command to
   LISTSERV%UCCVMA.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU.
 
   Coordinator: Richard Hintz <SPGRJH%UCCVMA.BITNET@VM1.NODAK.EDU>

The addresses may be out of date: I think that Richard Hintz 
current (non-bitnet) email address is: uunet!uccvma.ucop.edu!OPSRJH
