Oops, sorry for the delay. I didn't realize the RTF had creeped into reliability of Web services, an interest of mine. I understand how difficult the wording is in this space, so I won't nitpick (though I agree with pretty much all of Mike's comments). So I can live with all of these except this one; On Tue, Jul 02, 2002 at 04:23:55PM -0500, Damodaran, Suresh wrote: > D-AR019.1.3 Web Services Architecture will incorporate support for reliable > messaging. My concern about this, is that it's prescribing a solution. There are a handful of ways in which reliability can be achieved at runtime, and reliable messaging is just one (and IMO, a poor one on the Internet). I would prefer we say something like; ... will incorporate support for reliable computing I tried to think of something more specific, but it's hard to get specific before we know what the architecture looks like.
