WBMM> Queues

WBMM> Queues

WBMM is growing in scope, and I'm ok with that... (I think Bill might 
remind me that I contributed to this by insisting that WBMM scope include 
the intranet and devices, themselves). 

I think we're going to need to subset, however, to make any reasonable 
schedule. I suggest priorities are

1. Extranet device management, monitoring and administration
2. Intranet and extranet device and services management, monitoring and 
administration
3. Intranet and extranet device, services and spool or queue management, 
monitoring and administration

I do think doing some sub-setting makes sense - in the case of queues, not
all devices/services managed by WBMM will have queues to manage. 

Once we understand the potential subsets, we can talk about which ones 
need
to be in WBMM 1.0, and which can follow (or potentially be done in 
parallel.
