Hello Min, Michael:

I would say that all the Semantic Web Services people have QoS high on 
their list with some (preliminary) support already sketched in DAML-S. 
(Wow, did I weasel on that one, it's not merely "support", but 
*preliminary* support that's merely sketched. Oh well :))

I think SWS folks (well, ok, me) are especially concerned to support 
derivability of the QoS of a composition from the QoS (and other 
factors) of its parts. I would also say, but with a bit of hand waving, 
that supporting complex, extensible notions of QoS is important. Of 
course, supporting complex, extensible notions of Foo, for any Foo, 
seems the default position these days :)

Cheers,
Bijan Parsia.
