Subject: RE: [soa-blueprints] WS-TX
I would also add that there may be options to include some of the work done in the WS-CAF TC for context. It is not as rich as it should be but feedback to that group might be worthwhile anyway. My 2 cents. - Dan -----Original Message----- From: Ken Laskey [mailto:klaskey@mitre.org] Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 10:24 AM To: John Harby; soa-blueprints@lists.oasis-open.org Subject: Re: [soa-blueprints] WS-TX John, I would expect the service metadata to include, or more likely prominently link to, representations of policies under which the service wishes to perform. Per the SOA-RM, policies represent a "wish list" for the service, where some items may be negotiable and some not. Establishing the "execution context" is the mechanism by which provider and consumer policies are aligned and conflicts resolved; it may be thought of as a negotiation of policies resulting in a contract between the parties. A service invocation becomes possible and may occur within an established execution context. The transaction semantics would not be changed, but some level of semantic mediation may be necessary in the process of creating the contract, including documenting what mediation has occurred.
