Personally I think the fact that we're not progressing and the way the API has been received, by the people who are intended to use it, clearly indicates that we're not doing it right. Less dependence on decisions from other groups and requirements coming from the top, instead of from what happens between UAs on the network, would also make our lives easier IMO. I'm looking forward to see the API proposal and I'll be happy to comment on it. /Adam
