Hi Klaus,

Thanks for this.  A question below.

>  4. AMS and local systems are in sync.

If, in addition, you had an API by which step 1 could be done retail
(i.e. every time you added a member or whatever), would that be
useful?  Or something that you (not "anybody", but you in particular)
would not use?

Best regards.
