Alex,
I do agree with what u said.
plus, I would like for us to stop mixing issues by refereing 
to ONES. The work/place of is defined by the charter.

To me OPES is a proxy on Viagra (that includes the callout server too)

I had to explain what is an OPES to developers today, and I

the formula, it is a "plug-out". That is the same as a plug-in

on the network.

Would you agree with that? I do not know if is good English
and very
accurate. But people caught the concept immediately.

To me, an OPES callout server is a plugin into OPES
processor. OPES, as a whole, is a proxy service, possibly a 
content modifying proxy service. It may be viewed as a plugin 
into an application protocol proxy, to a certain extent.
