Subject: RE: [soa-rm-ra] Requirements for Governance
I
agree, Ken - it's a fine line for us. I think it would be valuable for another
initiative (outside of our TC/SC) to create a standard framework for
establishing SOA governance within an organization, but for us to consider
treating the topic more on the light side.

is it just having the appropriate information available through
description. With the caveat that I am behind in my reading and have not
gone through the articles identified over the past week, I don't believe SOA
requires policy beyond what is usually generated in the world, but it needs a
disciplined way to make use of policy. So service description needs to be
able to point to the applicable policy, possibly indicate the criticality of the
policy (by using a defined criticality term and pointing to the definition of
that term), and possibly point to the engine to be used to evaluate whether the
current or proposed interaction complies with the policy. A level of
compliance can be specified, again with the level definition being referenced
along with any specific level value.
Note, the onus here is how do you specify policy and how do you evaluate
compliance. (For those who missed it, this week W3C acknowledged the
Member Submission of WS-Policy.) Obviously, we need to prod this a little
harder but it seems to give the flexibility to have any specific governance plan
without SOA caring about the specifics.
Am I missing something?
