saying that if and when a provider for Oracle Spatial comes along, we won’t be
able to define the connection to the database and have the data come directly
from that connection? It basically dumps the data (that point in
time) into a repository that resides in on the MG server?

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: blue; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">This is where using a
managed data structure is a detriment, in my opinion. Many of us will want
to update our data through external processes and there is no easy way to just
copy files into the repository or point to an existing network location. I
think this is going to become a much bigger problem as people put these systems
into production and realize that they have to "load" their data into
repositories. It's also going to be a large problem for keeping data up to
date with ongoing system maintenance. Scheduled process are going to be a
necessity to ensure that the data in the repository is in synch with the source
data. And, in the case of large source datasets, the entire dataset will
have to be reloaded as there is no incremental update
method. </SPAN></FONT></P>

imported SDFs are processed (into SDF v3, I believe). Is it currently possible
to import SDF data sources into the repository without using
Studio at all, just using the server API? Is it possible to create your own
Packages using the server API? I would be interested in doing
this for our migration tools. </SPAN></FONT></P>
