Distributed Annex - no, they say most people use middleware (CORBA) instead.

ASIS - yes, but not in the free or even the 'Pro' version. You need to 
fork out serious cash for ASIS as it's part of an enterprise bundle. I 
think they would need 3rd party (SofCheck?) agreement to ship it in any 
other manner. Real shame.
