Bob,

I read through your governance paper and had a few particular thoughts and questions:

- Your recommended process is very heavy and requires a lot in place before you start seeing service results.  The Hartford used an evolutionary approach with a fairly light touch initially and then added selectively.  If I take what you describe as an end state, what would an evolutionary path look like to get there?

- You note five implementation tactics and I wonder if a sixth one isn't to identify what a service solution would look like, see what pieces of the current solution can be borrowed, and then build a minimize number of pieces so that you have a parallel SOA version of the current system (or a well defined part of it).  You should be able to demonstrate how the new structure will be better going forward while minimizing cost because you've used what is already there.  You also minimize risk because you make the new SOA available while not initially mandating a schedule for shutting down the old stuff.

Just some thoughts.
