Why not have the visualization tool use the NSI query interface? After
all, it is what it is supposed to be used for. I dislike the idea of
starting to build a parallel infrastructure for a task which is supposed
to be solvable with the NSI protocol. Sure, the polling nature of query
and the high entrance bar for SOAP+WSDL is probably not ideal, but I think
we should at least try to build something using it, before we start on the
parallel infrastructure. If it doesn't work or becomes to convulated or
complex, perhaps we should reconsider parts of the protocol. If we cannot
use NSI, who can?
Best regards, Henrik
