2.4.1 requirements document

[Peter Kacandes <Peter.Kacandes@ebay.sun.com>]

I have a question with regard to section 2.4.1 of the document that makes reference 
to maintaining two apis, one for machines and another for people. This seems to me 
to be extroardinarily inefficient. It seems to me that there should be only one API 
to the system. If somebody wants to write a gui to the system, then they are 
welcome to do it. I think it will be highly impractical to try and develop and 
maintain two apis. I have made these thoughts known within the architecture group, 
but am not aware that we came to any kind of conclusion on the topic.

thanks

regards
