Are triggers in the MCAT database the answer to SRB triggers?

Why do we need to implement a trigger system in SRB when most databases (i.e. oracle and postgresql) used for the MCAT support triggers?

I'm pretty sure that file information is stored in the MCAT so we should be able to build triggers to preform operation (i.e. execute kepler workflows, send SOAP packets to an axis server which can be queried by kepler)

This should remove the need for the SRB directory poller system.

Don't know why missed this. But how stable is the xcat code - SRB can now sare the load across multiple mcats, so this may make the job non-trivial?>
