JtC = cross post solution (was) ... Re: The real SOA challenge?

[James Bryce Clark <jamie.clark@oasis-open.org>]

     1.  Reply to Joe and John:  I hope so.
     2.  Request to all:  This interesting but long thread is going on in 
five e-mail lists.  These TCs have much in common, that properly is a basis 
for further chat, but while maintaining the separate and independent 
activities of each TC.  I would like to suggest a solution.  It would take 
some duplicate traffic off these lists, and provide a place for these 
cross-TC, SOA-oriented coordination conversations.
     I suggest that these 5 TCs consider starting a "service architecture 
joint committee."  The rules of that OASIS structure can be found at 
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/process.php#2.16.  It does not require 
any surrender of each committee's own work plan or views, but would provide 
a forum for discussion of possible voluntary coordination.  I will take 
this up further with your committee chairs, and discuss what kind of 
charter/outline might work.  If the TCs (or some subset of them) wish to do 
so, a JtC would create a place where matters of joint interest can be more 
effectively discussed.
     Regards  Jamie
