Thanks for the notes, Thilo! :-) I want to add one point which came out of the discussion: it lack of a notification mechanism on job/task status change etc was negatively perceived by the audience. Our explaination that we are unsure on how to specify that in an generally implementable way did not convince the audience. Callbacks are perceived as a good mechanism for precedural and OO languages. Cheers, Andre. Quoting [Thilo Kielmann] (Oct 03 2005):
