RE: Minutes of W3C WSDWG Conference Call, June 26th, 2003

I am happy to be more forceful about limiting objections to WG
decisions.  If I had done that then the rejection a year ago of the
one-interface-per-service proposal would stand.  But attendance at the
last FTF was light and this is a fairly central piece of our shared
understanding of what a web service is.  (Although it was pointed out on
the call that this shared understanding may be a myth we can dispense
with.)
