    Hi Harry,

    My intent all along (I guess not well-documented) is that a given
    SendReport conveys the results of the atomic action for a single
    one of the ActionTargetURI values (identified by the parameter
    'sourceURI' and also the element ReportSourceURI embedded
    in the Report object instance).

    Note that the Source URI identifies EITHER a WIMS Agent
    (such as the proxy running the Schedule) OR a legacy agent
    (such as the SNMP URI of a legacy printer). That's why the
    source is NOT implicit in the originator of the connection.

    Does that help?

    Cheers,
    - Ira

    PS - A refinement would be to have SendReport send a SET
    of Report object instances (one or more), one for each target.

    I've run into the following question

    When the schedule specifies more than one ActionTargetURI, how do we
    differentiate (in ReportRequestedElements) which ReportElementAny
    corresponds to which ActionTargetURI?
