When I entered the UDDI-topic it seemed like it was already agreed on but certain things (like fixing method names) should be done prior to a release. That was when I said that the code looks well-written - but didn't have in mind the function it serve, sorry. So if it's just a SOAP-call and it "could be done in < 5 lines of code" I must strongly release any given votes or comments and would also appreciate removal. > Hopefully, when we will have the new package proposal interface, > things like that won't happen as often (another example is > Stream_Var). Hmm, really? Could we discuss this a bit more in-depth please? Bertrand, do you have a bit background at this? It seems we discussed that php provides the "technical background" to be able to do this - but having files (maybe blobs retrieved from a db or something) in memory and handing them like regular files seems only possible with the use of Stream_Var. So isn't Stream_Var useful? As I understand it. Stefan
