There are other ways to do it, the problem is that MIDAS makes it so easy to
do the resolve (the download of data is pretty straight forward to emulate).
There is a JMidas client, but no server. I'll try and give you a call on
Monday and we can talk about it if you like.
Is this the kind of topic people would like a seminar on? We are looking at
doing some seminars (four in all) and of course would be looking for others
depending on interest - what do people want to know about?
