Paul Krill:

Can forming six committees result in simplification? OASIS believes this is the way to go with its SOA efforts.

Forming six separate committees for this effort does seem to be a bit of overkill. I like the idea of SCA, and I want it to gain some traction. I’m a bit concerned that this handful + 1 of committees will just create a disjoint handful + 1 of specs that are impossible to follow and keep up with or that only get implemented piecewise. I really hope that doesn’t happen, because then the effort will be a waste of time.

Please, learn something from the WS-* crap storm.
