Subject: RE: [saf] SAF Use Cases



Hi Jeff,

Good follow up. You (and Yasu) are probably right about the "stock price
changes" -I guess I was trying to demonstrate the integration of
different catalogues from different domains for different purposes! But
for the cloud profile that might indeed be irrelevant (?) or too much.

The use case looks good. Let's discuss it on the call

Cheers,

PS. "Stavros Investment Services"?? :-) That would be nice...
