BTP Issue 8 : Deaf clients

Source: Alastair Green, Choreology
Category: technical
Description:
Desire for clients which can initiate transaction, and invoke application service(s) in transactional context and terminate transaction, but cannot listen independently because of firewall or other restrictions or policies.
Proposed resolution:
Given the ability to do RPC over request/response carriers (see previous issue on SOAP RPC), this is possible using the 0.9 specification facilities, by making the Factory/Decider a remote, within-the-firewall service. (Server-side transactions). No need to modify specification.
