HAPI is a set of Java classes - but no user interface etc last time I 
looked (a year or so ago) - basically you need to address the java API, 
which for Python applications is not very convenient - there is no 
wrapper or supervisor application that comes with HAPI (from memory, 
please correct me if I am wrong). I think there is a port to .NET 
underway. That's why I mentioned Mirth, which although is also written 
in Java, can be treated more as a stand-alone black box appliance with 
messaging, network and database interfaces, rather than a direct API.
