Subject: RE: [business-transaction] Plan to close this TC
Jamie,
I think this is a recognition of reality. Thanks
for your support and
that of Karl before you during the lifetime of this
TC.
My personal best wishes to all current and former BT TC members
and
observers.
In my view, in this area there's little been done since
BTP 1.0 came out
in June 2002 that adds anything fundamental or very
interesting to what
we achieved back then, with the exception of some real
forward steps on
tranactions + security in WS-TX. It's a pity that the
elegance and power
of BTP's single overarching approach to optimized
2PC-based coordination
of loosely-coupled systems has been so frequently
underestimated,
misunderstood and
misrepresented.
