<snip/> > > I think we've learned enough in the "what is a web service" discussion to > get back to the requirements; ... <snip/> I agree:) However, it seems to me that there are still a couple of unresolved points. I would therefore like to propose the following which hopefully captures and remedies some of the concerns expressed in this thread regarding the absence of XML in our definition. "A web service is a software application or component identified by a URI, whose interfaces and binding are capable of being described by standard XML vocabularies and that supports direct interactions with other software applications or components through the exchange of information that is expressed in terms of an XML Infoset via internet-based protocols". Would this definition serve our needs while we focus our attentions on refining our goals and requirements? Cheers, Chris
