The main thing that came out of the LAC meeting was that the header file was the wrong place for metadata. The port hints, port names, plugin information, etc, etc, should be elsewhere in an easy to use metadata language. It's the use of external data that suggests a client library. Of course, there is no need to employ any particular library, or even any 3rd party library, dependant on the ease of parsing the metadata language. HTH, Bob -- Bob Ham <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
