Thankyou very much for your insightful and constructive
contributions. You bring perspective not only from practical
implementation and deployment, but also simply of the "bigger picture"
a suitable distance from the tangle of the immediate discussion. This
wisdom is VERY welcome indeed.

I'm quite sure there's interest and value in commonality in these
frameworks; in addition to the pros and cons of each, the complexity
of the landscape weakens the chances of success for any of them.
