I’m sure you’re right Dan, but I’m not too worried. I’m working with one tool vendor who is *very* keen on getting it right, and not doing anything to reduce the benefit of a Web/REST oriented approach. I would hope that others would be similarly interested. But even if not, over time the good tools will beat out the bad ones.
Apparently so – I already knew Mark had a gig with MS hence my question and the “no names is fine” clause. I’m actually quite pleased to hear this as it improves the chances of success somewhat.
You’re welcome. It only took 3 years.
Don’t smile too much the tools vendors are coming over the hill to wreak havoc on your lilttle enclave ;)

So would that be Microsoft or someone else? Don’t mind if you can’t name the name….
Cheers!
Dan – It didn’t take much digging!
