I have been convinced (mostly by Peter ;-) that CPIC is in fact working
as designed, and that the design is correct.  Context management is
outside the scope of CPIC; it is the application's responsibility, and
if CPIC destroyed the context for you, it would be impossible to use
it later, for instance in a cascaded server scenario, where the design
used "pipeline" transactions (datagrams).  I understand that there has
been work done on the CPIC 2.0 spec with respect to context managment,
but I am not familiar with it, so I can't comment on it (and with the
bashing I've taken so far on this subject, why would I want to?)

And a challenge for all of you who pointed out my mistake:
If you know the answer, please don't be shy about saving me from
getting egg on my face in the first place!

So, Tom, yes, Peter's solution is correct.

Regards,
