A couple of questions ... First, what's the difference between a "conceptual management model" and a "reference architecture." Is this just re-stating some other requirement in a different way? Also, is there some well-established body of theory or practice that we could draw on to define a "conceptual management model" for web services components and instances? I'm leery of doing computer science (or management science) by committee; I think W3C WGs are most effective when they sort out the most or less arbitrary differences among established practices than when they try to break new ground.
