you (and others) continue to confuse the task of gatewaying with the task of building a
unified, global service.

The problem of gatewaying is that the gateway does not get to dictate what
the participating systems do.  otherwise, it is not gatewaying.  it is
relaying within a homogeneous system.

the goal of CPIM was gatewaying.  when did it get changed?
