The facet of WS-I that smells the worst is this business of *permanent* board seats for the priviledged few. This seems bizzare, especially given that Fujitsu, for example, is not a name that springs to mind immediately when I'm thinking of web services. In fact, it looks more like the permanent board seats were divvied up by Microsoft and IBM over a mutually-agreed set of companies.I don't find Fujitsu's place bizarre at all. There are people in Fujitsu Labs who are heavily involved in FIPA and message based agent computing. The FIPA Abstract Architecture and webservices stacks have a lot in common - the main differentiator being that FIPA AA has a content model for payloads.
