		One approach is to have the Internet community (e.g., the IETF) take responsibility for developing a subset or profile of that part of X.500 it will use, and developing solutions for the ambiguous and undefined parts of X.500 that are necessary to provide a complete service.
		For the longer term, the applicability of the site discovery part of Netfind is more relevant, and more work has been put into that part of the system over the past 2 years than into the user search phase.
		Since there are various efforts going on to develop WPS based on various different protocols, one can envisage a future with a meta- WPS that uses a combination of an intelligent user agent and a distributed indexing service to access the requested data from any available WPS.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Spanish Armada
		A striking comment on the inefficiency of the vast preparations is afforded by the letters of the papal nuncio at Philip's court.
		He reports at the end of February, 1588, that he had been talking with the other envoys from Germany, France, and Venice, and that none of them could make out for certain that the fleet was intended to attack England after all, for which they all thought it far too weak.
		Next month he was reassured by one of Philip's own councillors -- they felt sure all would go well, if they once got a footing in England (Vatican Archives, Germania, CX sq., 58, 60).

		In many senses Philip II had too many responsibilities and not enough financial clout to respond to his foreign problems.
		Philip's foreign policy went from grand successes, such as defeating the Turks at Lepanto, to humiliating defeats as happened in 1588 with the failure of the Spanish Armada.
		However, Lepanto was a massive blow to her prestige (rather like the 1588 Armada was to be for Spain) and Turkey’s campaign post-Lepanto was one of disengagement.

		The "defeat" of the Spanish Armada by the Royal Navy in 1588 is a story every schoolchild knows.
		Linked in British history with the beginning of England's naval supremacy, it has been presented for years as a David-and-Goliath showdown in which the Armada, then the uncontested ruler of the seas, was roundly defeated by a British force that was roughly a third the size of the Armada.
		In this well-written and documented book, Fernandez-Armesto examines the causes of the historical representation of the battle of 1588 and re-creates the event from both sides.
