Glenn, Just for information, I have a Turbine Merlin Service, running successfully on my local system. I have been corresponding over the last 10 days or so with Steve McConnell trying to understand a few issues before taking it further. I hope that this will replace the ECM based Avalon Component Service in Turbine in due course.
My discussions with Steve have raised a few issues that may be of interest to various users of Avalon and I will be posting my summary shortly for discussion.
