Any progress on the MSE and Configuration Service 2 merger?

Hi, I used Configuration service framework to build WCF services. What is the progress on the merger of MSE and Configuration Service?

I am interested in such a solution as a framework to build services as well.

Work on Config Service 3.0 is going to start in a few weeks. I am going to look at MSE capabilities, and make a determination on what can/should be rolled in. I do want to roll in a router-based service; ala MSE; and will likely look to leveredge that code. Other plans:

-A client-light implementation that would allow clients to take advantage of load balancing/failover without implementing config service itself (backend services would implement the config service; but node information would be dynamically retrieved directly from the backend services)
-Optional ability to store binding configuration information in the repository (vs. having to use config files); and dynamically update this info/upload new bindings via ConfigWeb
-A new layout/UI for configweb, tested on IE7, IE8 and Firefox
-Updates for Win7
-Updates for .NET CLR4, VSDev10(both still in beta right now)
-Dublin integration where it makes sense
-Other ideas? Now is the time to offer up suggestions.

Timing would be several months away still.

Switch out to MVC
Ability to plug in your own views (i.e. Spark, etc)
Better DAL. NHibernate/EF + Repository pattern. NH is better due to its wide support for non-SQL dbs.
Include Unit Tests
Distributed cache (i.e. Velocity, memCacheD). Make it pluggable (see #6) to easily switch out the actual implementation.
Refactor with an IoC container. Make things pluggable where applicable. Possibly use Common Service Locator (from codeplex) to rid the actual container dependency.
OpenId/oAuth support vs Federated bindings. Long shot probably.
Make it open source
