[snip great example]

With respect and appreciation for the solutions presented, if you
have any interest in using U2 with other languages, consider that
so far the solutions for python, Java, and PHP are completely
different.  This is why I created the standardized API mentioned
earlier.  A standardized API makes code in all languages look the
same.  This allows anyone familiar with the API to be helpful to
other developers regardless of the target language.  It allows
anyone familiar with the API to transfer their skills quickly to
another language.  It abstracts out the communications tier, so
that application code doesn't need to be bothered with How data
is exchanged with a back-end server, it just is.  And it allows
us to write code which can be used for multiple MV platforms -
something important to those of us who need it, and for anyone
who thinks a migration could be in their future.

So as we see these great examples of solutions created by
individuals, generously provided here, just remember that we can
(and IMO should) just have one way of doing it, in a consistent
MV connectivity framework with any number of language bindings.
When enough people get the itch for that elegance we can talk
about what it will take to make this available for all of us to
use.

( LOL We have SO many subthreads here that should all be in their
own threads.  This is far far from CallHTTP... )
