[V4RB] design of future pluign

[Cindy]

Hi,

I am running my program at the moment in a number of sites with a local
network server and workstations sending transactions across TCP/IP. This
means that each workstation is its own entity but the server keeps track of
all changes and sends them around to all the workstations as they are
plugged in. Workstations can be used away from the server and when they are
brought back to school and plug into the local network, the changes made are
sent to the server and other user's changes are brought back.

How is this situation going to work with the new Valentina system? I don't
need an internet server at this stage at all as each complete client
(including workstations and server) only work within the client's local
network. I understand that Panorama works in this situation.

Cindy
