My perspective is that we havent really reached "the glass" (I assume
you mean the computer display) with SOALogic, though there are some
things done there with the UI Definitions in Generico.

There is also a "smart clients" profile which is some early work to
define how smart clients consume generico...

Hello,

	I see much of the discussion focused on how the interplay of
processes at the back end can/should be or not be defined.  However
nothing about what happens on the glass.  Noting that the majority of
the patterns and anti-patterns are expressions of how services work
together but then are surfaced up to users through two mechanisms -
portals and clients.   I find myself questioning much about the patterns
used to describe how services should even interoperate on the back end.
Meaning - by focusing only on the back are we missing a big part of the
landscape?
