Sorry, you missed the point completely.
My point is that to do Jini you need to install some (free, maybe)
software from the same vendor on every piece of the puzzle.
With Web services, the focus is the opposite: you install software from
whoever that claims compliance to support the wire standards.
Do you seriously disagree that there's no fundamental difference in
focus on what aspect (wire vs. endpoint) is being defined for the
integration standard in WS-* vs. say Jini?
I didn't say anything about the size of the software you need to
install: I'm sure some vendors WS-* stacks require a boatload of
software! That's not at all the point.
