Title: FW: SOA approach

TC:

Here is another activity happening in the EU based on the RM.  I wanted to share this with you all to illustrate the impact of the work we have done and encourage us all to reach out and support efforts such as this in the future.

I have responded to Oriol and will travel to Barcelona to meet with his group in the future.   If anyone who is EU based is able to visit them before May, you may wish to contact him directly.

Hi Duane,
 
My name is Oriol Bausà and I’m member of OASIS and following your SOA-RM TC for several months. I’m from Barcelona and I participate in an initiative to develop and deploy a  Service Oriented Infrastructure to get applications on-demand. We are developping that project as OpenSource and it’s called Oaproject. It has its own web site http://www.oaproject.net/en  and it is also in Sourceforge to share it with the community.
 
I’m writing you this mail because your work has inspired us a lot, and we consider the SOA RM standard a basic paper that states the path forward. Maybe a critical eye can say that Oaproject is nothing to do with SOA, because there is no choreography, no registry with service descriptions, and so on, but we have tried to do a first step approach to a global service oriented infrastructure, just developing an open source framework where applications can collaborate with each other. We did not want to develop applications, but to let them collaborate. Our main goal was to get applications integrated easily and sharing some first general services. Afterwards, we should slim those applications’ functionality in order to convert them to atomic services.
 
Anyway, I hope that in mid-March we will deliver the very first Service based on OAProject. After that first release, we plan to make a conference around SOA and we would like to know if you think it’s interesting for you or other SOA RM TC member to come and share with us your thoughts and considerations.
 
Best regards, 
Oriol Bausà
