RE: Nailing down the definition of "Web services" and the scope o fWS A for the document

I'm torn between wanting the WSA to be consistent with the webarch, and
wanting the WSA constraints to be meaningful.  If anything with identity is
"on the web" that excludes essentially nothing (Dan Connolly's car is
supposedly "on the Web" because he has assigned it a URI in a domain he
controls). As several people noted on the telcon yesterday, an architecture
without constraints is not an architecture.

An information object is 'on the web' if it has a URI.
