We could start DML vs DSL debate ;-) Do you agree that: "Proprietary tools which worked mostly were DSL."? A UML profile is a poor man's metamodel, so this could conceptually be used with MOF or EMF, too. The problem is that one has to define what the exact SOA metamodel is :-) But there is no standardised profile for SOA. OMG started SOA SIG (http://soa.omg.org/) only few month ago. Can you guess whether this group goals could be successful? (eg. create SOA metamodel, ...). May be I overestimate necessity of standards. But without standard you get a mess (eg. not cooperating tools...). __._,_.___ YAHOO!
