Re: [soa-iwg] ECF remote services

Hi Scott,
congratulations to you and the ECF team for the promptly implemantion  
and release of the spec.  What I am still missing is the tooling  
aspect and also the integration with the other components. I do not  
expect them to be available today, but we should have a roadmap which  
addresses these topics and commitments to implement the roadmap. In a  
second step we should then discuss what has to be in a first  
contribution for the EPP package to make it useful.

Cheers,
Zsolt
