Agreed.  As a first level of discovery, almost 
any lookup works. The devil is in the details 
and so are the hidden costs.  To find these 
and deal requires human analysis.  Partners
and products need to be qualified and that 
eliminates "public" facilities rapidly.

I personally have a hard time believing in UDDI as a *public*
facility - when I look up a Web Service or any other business
service I probably want a human in the loop.  On the other hand,
some smart people at Microsoft and elsewhere are making a 
good case for UDDI being useful in a trusted enterprise
environment.

The other two are really great sounding ideas that are not
yet widely deployed.  Place your bets. -Tim
