[gin] Dane's question

[Jennifer M. Schopf]

I think the agreement was actually to look into ways to describe the data, 
the PRAGMA tool was one possibility, WebMDS was another, several folks said 
they had available ways to display the data.

However, listing services IS NOT something this list has discussed yet- 
we're still trying to reach an agreement on a minimal set of attributes, so 
i think we'd need more info about what you're looking for.
