Thaks for your reference to ADF. I look forward to your comments once you've had a chance to look at it in detail.

Standards development should ideally be based on existing technology, rather than a bunch of guys (communists? ;-)) coming together, scratching their heads, and saying "right, lets invent something new". Instead, vendors with existing, working implementations get together with each other and knowledgable users, to combine the strongest points of their technologies, and align their interfaces. Thsi enables users to have a choice between implementations, without being tied into any one particular vendor.
