This is a holy grail within distributed computing just as much as
mantra for the people lumbered with the jobs of buying and selling
middleware. The point of convergence, or agreement, between web
services (eg XMLP), p2p (eg JXTA) and agent systems (eg FIPA-AA) is
that networked applications must be allowed to be transport
agnostic. Transport Agnostic==The Good is an axiom of many
architectures.
