Hi
You have done some good job.
Really.

Having no answers on this list when doing a work for a special feature 
is not so unusual.
We all have our problems to solve and timelines. And sometimes what you 
are doing is vital for you but not so critical for others.
Still I think your work is interesting.
But problem of integration with Koha trunk is an other question.

How to best do it and not happen to come to have many SIP 
implementations or one RFID reader for each RFID vendor ?
Maybe SIP and some xml APIs can make it.
Jean-Andre Santoni worked on ILS-DI draft implementation.

Maybe send your patches to patches at koha.org and wait for comments could 
also be a way to do.

I really would like to have your work rather into a contrib tree or 
something which would be optional and easily selectable and setup.
Do we need one ?
But still, it looks as though many additions such as GBS, B&T,  and 
other webservices have been added without any discussion. So why not ?
 
Comments ?
