We have a web front end for MANMAN on the 3000.  We also have GUI
interfaces for MANMAN on the 3000.  Our software converts Image data to
SQL on PC's and allows more freedom with the 3000/Image environment.
The only hole left is the 3000 support issue.  But with folks like
Beechglen, Vaske, and others, this should be less of a concern.
Sorry to plug, but we have addressed this issue.
Thanks,

 If HP provides Web services to MPE, eHP3000 just wrap around current
applications with web services. Reincarnated MPE/e3000 with
application service, HP e3000 customers are worry free about their
software/hardware migration...and future. Carla what do you say ?
