You wrote there; "I Googled to see if anyone else had described doing this but I couldn't find any references to using RSS as a Web services registry - a kind of Really Simple Syndication of Services (or RS3). I did see mention of some uses of RSS around Web services (similar to other ideas I had when looking into this) but nothing about using it as a services registry. Not even from the REST community." I don't think I've mentioned RSS specifically, but I've said on several occasions that any document format combined with dereferenceable URIs could replace UDDI. For example; "The whole idea of any kind of any form of centralized registry (except DNS, which gets special consideration for the time-being) is an anathema to Web architecture, which is radically decentralized. If UDDI had followed Paul's advice, and used URIs to identify the entries in their registry, they would quickly have discovered that anybody could, in effect, become a registry merely by putting these URIs in a web page someplace. Because that's what's really going on, on the Web; each web page is a mini registry, which includes references (hyperlinks) to other pages that can describe anything, including all the things that UDDI describes." -- http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/wlg/1680 Mark. -- Mark Baker.
