Re: [equinox-dev] [prov] Change request and IProfileRegistry relationship

I think I'd have to see the changes first, but my initial reaction is that we probably want to get rid of IProfileRegistry.updateProfile(Profile). I think profile registry would still have add/remove API, and API for querying and getting the profiles. I don't see it necessary to make the engine
