Btw Justin, if you are listening (cc'ed you on purpose) I was thinking that probably this thing could be approached by separating security per se and these dynamic filters, and have a filtered catalog wrapper that sits on top of the secure catalog Not sure though. The other approach one could follow to solve this is to back out the catalog filter and modify all the capabilties documents builders instead, which if of course annoying and maintainance heavy (every time we add a new version of a protocol or a new protocol we'll have to remember about the advertised flag) Cheers Andrea -- ------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
