"IP-centric" == has an IP stack, as was stated on-list several days 
back.

For that definition, the XMLconf protocol *IS* only for IP-centric
devices.  If there is no IP stack on the device, there is no way
to move the configuration blob on/off the device -- Quod Est 
Demonstratum.

And nothing Margaret has said has changed that -- for example mrw
has NOT proposed an XMLconf spec that can work absent an IP stack.
