Subject: discussion on approaches for web services/ business transaction
WS-CAFer's - especially those interested in seeking a good general solution to the need for transactional mechanisms in the web services environment - may be interested in the discussion thread on the OASIS business-transaction list with the title "Public Comment" - it began with a message on the business-transaction-comment list (http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/business-transaction-comment/20031 0/msg00001.html - but archive displays badly) from Boris Lublinsky, with a detailed response from Mark Little and Eric Newcomer (http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/business-transaction-comment/20031 1/msg00000.html) and then the discussion tranferred to the main business-transaction list (thread-head is http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/business-transaction/200311/msg0000 4.html - some of the later messages are bit mangled (my first one is split in two), but you can probably work out what is going on. I intend to continue the discussion (Mark left the ball in our sub-thread in my court, I think). Since the fundamental question in this area is whether the starting point should be a single transaction protocol or a large number of such, it would seem this is critical to this group. However since ws-caf is based on the latter assumption, and in any case the workplan doesn't get round to transactions for a considerable time, the business-transaction list would seem the best place (cross-posting to archiving lists generally being a bad thing). BTP of course does currently take the opposite approach, but the BT group is keen to reach convergence in the business transaction area, and won't count people joining the list as necessarily agreeing.
