RE: Summary: D-AG0011

Mike,

Agreed we need to move asap and can't wait.  But we've got this lovely goal
that says the wsarch has to work with the web architecture.  My argument is
that we shouldn't try to define the web architecture in order for us to
figure out how we fit into it.

Heck, I'd almost be glad with a CSF that says "We are successful at
complying with the web architecture until the TAG directly says the wsarch
isn't compliant" ;-)  Let the compliance *stuff* flow uphill so to speak.

I'm trying to look for a way for us to do less work, rather than more.  I
feel strangely compelled to very closely examine each of the CSFs currently
listed as I'm afeared of how they could be used, and I *KNOW* that will
spark heaps of debate.  And I don't think I can live with the interpretation
as it stands because of the potential interpretations :-(

Dave
