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.

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.
