Subject: Re: [ebsoa] Draft Minutes from F2F
Further to my response, what we desire is an SOA reference model that also contains a section on conformance and is written as a standard, possibly using conventions such as the RFC 2119 keywords etc. Duane > > Diane Mularz wrote: > >> Actually an SOA Reference Model does exist.
