    Audio Extension, Display Postscript Extension, Image Extension, PEX 
    Extension .....
    I believe we are at the point to reevaluate what are the extensions 
    for. Otherwise, the whole idea of the network transparency
    will disappear in myriad of extensions, each available on one server
    but not the others, with some servers becoming more complex that any
    operating system.

    It is time to start thinking about generic client-server protocol,
    server-server protocols, and about dedicated servers.
