Thanks David.

I think web services as a means implies looking beyond 
hypertext as a model.

As we integrate more functionality at ever 
greater scales, two things become evident:

a) To say the web is universal the way the atmosphere is 
isn't invalid.  To deny that it is a very thin layer is.

b) As the scale increases, sensitivity to other affective 
dimensions does as well.  The ones that seems to out the 
weakness of most designs are time and cost.

The value of an asset is inversely proportional to its 
distance in real time from the dispatching event.

Len,

Indeed. 

Nice WS link.

People looking for robust and reliable lightweight messaging 'glue' 
should also
take a gander at OASIS ASAP implementations.

I believe they also have an open source release too.
