Everyone,
 
I have finished 
compiling all of your responses into a summary document.  I included all of 
the concerns that were surfaced and discuss why, for our particular situation, 
we will be using one technology vs another.  I anticipate some controversy, 
so try to keep your criticism constructive in nature and I will revise the 
document to include those points as well.
 
Thanks again to 
the operator community!
