Re: WS-I

Sounds good to me. By cc I'm giving Tom Glover, who is the IBM member, a
heads up.

Tom - the proposal is have some relation between the W3C WS Description WG
and WS-I,  to coordinate efforts at addressing the WSDL 1.1 interop
problems.

This is an excellent idea!! As a WS-I Board member I'm more than happt to
facilitate this course of action.

I'll take an action item to get the newly formed WS-I Board liaison
