So nice this feels - I doubt there is any value in this. It is like saying "I don't buy into Programming Patterns, my style is no style". The stuff you throw together might work but this approach decreases maintainability (one of the goals for the kinds of systems SOA is aimed at). >Consequently, classification for me is only of so much use. What about the people that deal with the stuff after you? We should not forget here that the goal in the context of enterprise IT is not to get something to work, but to buid systems that are simple, scalable, evolvable and extensible. And the question is, what can SOA guarantee towards that end. Jan >Cheers, > >Dan. > > > >Yahoo! Groups Links > > > > >
