Vancouver? Nice place... lived there for 10 good years. Still have ties
there, so likely I will visit again... However, it is on a significant
time difference than CET ;-(

So, seeing your mail now, it seems you have already moved the files. I
would also be interested to make a little test application with that
data sample... If you do not mind, can you send me the links again,
either here or privately?

Note that if you do not want these lying exposed on your server, you
can use something like yousendit.com or even skype to transfer to
specific known users. For yousendit, you will upload only once, then
the addressed may download within a specific period of 7 days, after
which they are delected.

Patrick, could this be the basis of a comparison between various
implementation scenarios? It is rather relational in nature though...
if we define what the test application should do, then whoever wants
can implement the test to those speces.

Thanks, mario
