[David Jencks <da...@yahoo.com>]

This looks to me like it might have some relevance to what we are  
trying to do with triplesec.

Wow!  Thanks for this info David.  This is the first time I have heard of
the ESOE project, but from a quick glance at their confluence wiki and web
site it definitely appears as though there are some opportunities for
synergy here.  I am going to make it a point to build and test this out in
the following week.  This looks really interesting!

Thanks,
Chris
