DN - the constituency that was present at the last 6 meetings agrees
that if ebXML and web services are SOA, it makes sense to define what
SOA is (as a reference model) before we go about specializing it. The
W3C Web Services Architecture group also came to a similar conclusion
(my interpretation - maybe not shared).
The work to define an SOA reference model (not an architecture) that
adheres to the design principles of ws*, eb* among others, is a work
item that should be examined in detail.
