Subject: RE: [wsbpel] Issue - 11 - Proposal to vote
I admit I haven't followed the recent detailed discussion of 11. I do agree with Dieter point that XSLT is desirable relative to peculiar BPEL data manipulation features and also that a 103-like protracted effort for semantic naildown is not desirable. I would like to hear the opinion of the currently active participants in the 11 discussion on how close we are and much effort it would take to make this XSLT feature a foolproof addition to BPEL with the door open for other transformation models using infoset terminology, etc. -----Original Message----- From: Dieter Koenig1 [mailto:dieterkoenig@de.ibm.com] Sent: Wednesday, October 19, 2005 7:34 AM To: wsbpel@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: [wsbpel] Issue - 11 - Proposal to vote Importance: High The recent appends related to issue 11 show a lot of interest in introducing XSLT under the assign activity. We definitely support the idea of building on standardized data manipulation languages as opposed to inventing our own (which has never been an objective of WS-BPEL). Without getting into the formal discussion (XSLT has been rejected in Issue 48; XSLT is a major feature and not a bug), we would like bring up some of our concerns with the current approach. We recognize that there is a lot of good work being done right now, however, a long process for the c larification of the BPEL data access from XSLT (similar to 103 for XPath) is not really an option if we want to finalize the specification soon.
