Subject: Re: [wsbpel] Issue - 130 - Proposal for vote
I originally asked that we hold off until the
abstract BPEL issue comes to a closer as this seemed of most relevance
for abstract BPEL (externally visible behavior use case in particular).
All
external interaction dependencies w.r.t. a collaborating party grouped
together, so that developer of the process on the collaborating side
can easily see the all interaction points with the processes that
it needs to mesh with. However, at this point I don't see much utility for this myself unless we specify how the users are expected to make use of this clearly. I agree with Paco that better to remove things that have no direct utility to the BPEL users. Regards, Prasad -------- Original Message --------
I was of the same opinion as you (that partner elements may have a use in B2B modeling for example) but the truth is we don't know enough about their use to justify their inclusion in the final spec. Better err on the side of simplicity.

I don't actually recall a discussion about removing them, but I'm somewhat ambivalent about doing so, and wonder what others think on the issue. Danny Yaron Y.
