[MOBY-dev] RFC for asynchronous POST services

[Sergio Ramirez Ramirez]

Nice proposal Eddy. In a fast reading it looks similar to the Moby 
Asyncronous proposal which would facilitate the implementation of new 
services and clients (i.e., support for such kind of services in clients 
like jOrca would allow their combined use with traditional MOBY services).

will read with detail and comment
Best Regards, Sergio
