Well, my implementation is rather initial,
so perhaps I've taken a sub-optimal path.
Now I've refactored, and the service type has become
an user-defined parameter (you can download again
the same .tgz to have the new samples): so one can
define the service type he needs.
Thanks for your feedback.
Best regards
