Late weighing in, and weighing in with little technical know-how. It's my feelings that any kind of in-between product is really just going to waste time and resources that could be going into building the web client. I suspect that's already been said, but here's another +1 On Mon, Apr 7,

Galen, I was deliberately vague in my earlier email, and hope you will understand if I continue to be :) I think it is fine to proceed with a separation mindset and see how it turns out. Thanks, Dan Daniel Wells Library Programmer/Analyst Hekman Library, Calvin College 616.526.7133
