> To develop a standard reference architecture for web services that:
>
> AG001 ensures the interoperability of web services software products from
> different implementors based on well-defined standards
>
> AG002 provides modularity of web services components, allowing for a level

>
> AG003 is sufficiently extensible to allow for future evolution of

> and of business goals
>
> AG004 ensures platform independence of web services components in
> a way that
> does not preclude any programming model nor assume any particular mode of
> communication between the individual components
>
> AG005 provides simplicity and ease-of-use that does not impose
> high barriers
> to entry for users of web services
>
> AG006 addresses the security of web services across distributed
> domains and
> platforms
>
> AG007 is reliable, and stable, and whose evolution is predictable
> over time
>
> AG008 is coherent and consistent in its definition
>
> AG009 is aligned with the semantic web initiative at W3C and the overall
> existing web architecture
>
> AG010 uses XML technologies in the development of the web services
> architecture to the extent that this is compatible with the
> overall goals of
> the group
>
> AG011 is consistent with the existing web and its heterogenous environment
> and distributed architecture to the greatest extent possible.

> In addition, the Working Group will also act to:
>
> AG012 evangelize and promote the benefits of web services to potential
> users, both consumers and producers
>
> AG013 co-ordinate the development of web services within W3C,
> together with
> other W3C Working Groups where there is overlap among their
> problem domains
>
> AG014 serve as liaison with groups outside W3C who are working on web
> services in order to achive interoperability and reduce duplication of
> effort
