I don't think all of
these WS-* specs
*are* composable.
I don't think the BIMers
care two hoots if
their specs work
with those from the
SOFties. Actually i sometimes think
they'd prefer it if they
didn't.

don't think so. If this is a composable set of specifications,
it is
a matter of the programmer not paving their own roads to
hell
by putting together components that don't work. So the
WSIO
profiles bear watching.
How
coarse a loosely coupled chunk work? In other words,
what
combinations are failure prone? Those will be questions
to
ask. We can make complex things work if they are composed
of
simpler things that work. Otherwise ALL of our cars would be
"unsafe at any speed".
