That's where I'm at too, I think.

To the point that such services should be based on Heat and that there
should be a framework for building similar services - that's my instinct
too and if there's general agreement on that point, I'd be wary of
RedDwarf entering Incubation without progress being made in that
direction.

I mean, who knows - if someone came along with a new project to
implement such a generic framework, I think we'd want to incubate *that*
project and encourage RedDwarf to port to it. I don't see why we should
decide now that RedDwarf will be the basis that generic framework.

Cheers,
