We can agree to disagree, but I believe it was Anne in a prior email that stated WOA is the subset of SOA and I agree with that premise. Web-based architecture deals only with the world-wide web as delivery vehicle, while SOA can be applied to any type of system.

Unfortunately, that was not my point (which I believe you realize) still SOA is the advanced approach that retrenches into WOA because that's what we have resources to accomplish versus pushing through until we actually get enough resources to support it.

It's really not, JP. Nick was right. The Web is an *improvement*
upon SOA systems (at least for a very broad class of application).
SOA is the familiar, comfortable retreat of the rats who haven't yet
realized that.
