Much of the advice we give them revolves around that problem. And the rest of your points are spot-on.

To be fair, the OMC is ostesibly tasked with such stuff, so we'll see what happens.

It seems the latter, but maybe I'm just behind on my research of them… tough to sell a customer on being able to do 1/3 of what say Tivoli can do, "but we're open source"… paying customers don't tend to care – they do care about whether they have "exit power" if your SM apps suck (hence they may care about standards…)
