Markus,

SO are we saying that the system is static or the OPES flow can be
dynamically decided (based on a user profile for eample)

Abbie,

sure, so here's my understanding so far:

   An "OPES system" describes the collection of all OPES 
entities (i.e.
   OPES processors and callout servers) that are operated by a single
   provider (or, alternatively: ...within a single trust domain).

If this describes what an "OPES system" was meant to be, I somehow 
don't like the term too much. Maybe the term "OPES domain" would be 
appropriate?

That is the main problem. We need a formal definition, 
since we refere 
to it a lot in the draft.

To start off the discussion, can we state that an OPES

system is the

collection of entities that perform OPES transformations on a
request/responce within an OPES flow?

Isn't there somewhere an assumption in the drafts that an "OPES
System" describes OPES entities that are operated (or belong) to a 
single operatore/trustdomain/carrier?

Thanks,
