<offtopic>Better to be forced to talk privately than publicly! But you
should not blame the mailing list organization -- blame your mail
agent instead, for not auto-filling both TO and CC headers :-).

What I see from the mails is:
1. there is a clear understanding of what OPES are and how they
could work in using SOAP, XML etc. CPU and line bandwidth
consuming standard solutions. This is very interesting as it is
a good consistent Internet response style with what is going
around. It seems an exact, clear response to the IAB desire.
2. there is a smarter, pipe oriented, low cpu load approach with
user interaction which corresponds to what I look for and which
is actually like a network operating system.
Perhaps it is just me, but I am still not quite sure what ONES is or
should be. Could you please give two very specific, real-world ONES
examples? Clearly, if there is a smarter, lower-load architecture we
should at least consider it!
Thank you,
Alex.
