Hi Mike,

  Thanks for keeping this to the list first, before going off-line.

  Not sure what PIAF means, this project is more of an in-development 
scenario with focus on spce. If you are comfortable with provisioning 
end-point devices in general I'm sure you are welcome to join in to 
offer your experience and suggestions on how to make this great.

  Drop me an email off-list.
