Those don't sound like requirements. They sound like some kind of sales blurb from somebody's product. It sounds like the decision has already been made by whomever gave you those "requirements". I would just buy the product who's sales brochure they originated from, otherwise the requirements-specifier-person will probably not be happy.

Hi,
I am not sure if anyone can help - I have been reading through the documentation on the web site - but I don't want to unfairly critic the application just because I have not run across the information yet.
I have a list of requirements that need to be met and I was hoped someone with more expert knowledge of Hobbit can tell me whether it meets these requirements or not.
