Backstage trapping vs Deskpack

[mojo]

     The dogs are wanting more automated trapping workflows, I've found that if the art is supllied correctly (big if) that the trapping is much more efficient and better controlled using deskpack as opposed to a Backstage hotfolder. I'm curious as to how others are automating trapping. I've heard rumours of JDF actually building the tickets based on the XML.
