Keep an eye on what Martin and Eddie are doing with MoSeS - quite a bit
of the service architecture is now auto-generated by their code, so it
really just comes down to the service provider writing the business
logic.  I suppose if the business logic can, in your case, be even
further templated then the bar for service provision gets even lower!  

Must run!

"Since the point of a definition is to explain the meaning of a term to
   someone who is unfamiliar with its proper application, the use of
language that doesn't help such a person learn how to apply the term is
 pointless. Thus, "happiness is a warm puppy" may be a lovely thought,
                     but it is a lousy definition."
