Scope
-----

Because of the breadth of this topic, there are many potential
interactions with existing efforts, including (but not limited
to):

 * WSDL extensibility / features and properties
 * WS-Policy Framework and Attachment specifications
 * SOAP's abstract model, SOAP modules, features and properties
 * The Semantic Web; e.g., OWL-S, Rei, Ontologies for Web services
 * Rule languages; e.g., RuleML
 * Web Content Negotiation and Composite Capabilities/Preference 
   Profile (CC/PP)
 * Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) and EPAL
 * HTTP headers and other Web-based policies; e.g., robots.txt, 
   WebDAV properties
 * XACML, including WSPL
 * The IETF Policy Framework
 * The boundary and interactions between policy, service level
   agreements, and business level agreements in web services.

Discussion of the relationship of these areas to the Workshop
topic is encouraged.

We are looking forward to your participation and 
contributions to this workshop.
