Understood.

In general, the answers to all of these is here:

The first release of OMERO.fs  will come in late February, with the  
next step arriving roughly end of April.

Not yet, but in Beta4.1

Absolutely, and many different entities, including commercial  
companies like Applied Precision and PerkinElmer are using it.

See

http://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/omero/wiki/ServerDesign
http://trac.openmicroscopy.org.uk/omero/wiki/OmeroApi

As we are moving towards Beta4, much of the API is changing.  If you  
are coding against OMERO, let us know and we will point you to the new  
docs as they become available.

Cheers,

Jason
