      The business case for choreography
Pretend you are talking to a CIO of a hard nosed company with lots of money. The CIO has only 2 or 3 minutes for you to explain why he/she should support/use/back Choreography. What would you explain are the business benefits of Choroegraphy?
To which the CIO responds and says “But I could just use WS-BPEL for this? What is different?”
Can each of the attendees give this matter some thought and either present it at the call or put it on the public list. What I am looking for is something like:
You should use Choroegraphy because it
       1. It makes me money (in what way?)
       2. It saves me money (in what way?)
