Subject: RE: [wsbpel-abstract] Modification of Sally's document from Tony
Interesting observations on both your parts. As I mentioned in my trial balloon proposal For an abstract bpel use case, I envision The business person putting together a visual Model and the abstract bpel is generated by A tool under the covers so to speak. Think IBM had such a tool for Eclipse. That minimum set of core requirements for Abstract bpel make a lot of sense. It would Establish a framework and help to focus our Discussion. Tony what do you think? Phil Rossomando Good suggestions...

You also indicated in your paper that the abstract process would allow hiding. Reference: <<<It must be possible to have an abstract BPEL process that only uses some, or none, of the optional language features. An abstract BPEL process designer is able to add or omit detail as they please, limited only by the features of the language.>>> Are we to infer then that we have a minimum set of core mandatory language features in the abstract process? Would that assist us in helping to ensure conformance (not compliance) [1] and/or compatibility with the executable process? One more point, on your target audience, I am uncertain if a business process expert would be involved with abstract BPEL. The target audience, I believe begins with the architects you listed.
