RE: [ebxml-bp] Manual Operations in BPSS"

[<martin.me.roberts@bt.com>]

Is the a simple solution that we can at least grasp for release 2.0

Depending on how you answer this question we may have a solution?

How do you know what state your BPSS is in?

For us in BT we have used forks and joins with names to indicate states.
This means that we could exchange with our partner through an out of
band collaboration, where each of our collaborations is.  The customer
could also send us that information.  Depending on who gets there first
we could replay any transactions or agree to leap to a named state.

Very simple but effective.  No replay required but you now have two
gateways/systems stacks aligned.

What do you think?
