Subject: Tablebases on the internet...

In looking at the sizes of the tablebases (outpacing the growth of the average
hard drive), it seems the biggest issues are:
1) Building them.
2) Making them accessible.

It would be far from a speedy solution, but has anyone done feasibility tests on
using web services or SOAP to query the database over the internet?  For Mr.
Hyatt, Mr. Theron, Gian-Carlo, et.al., do you see this type of "online
knowledge" being of any use in the future, or would latency just make any
benefit moot?
