Service Oriented Enterprise |
Saturday, March 29, 2003 I.T.A.A. - Screwing us Again I try real hard not to post non-service-oriented topics on this blog, but I have to make an exception. Once again, the group that has positioned itself as the champion of the I.T. professional is hell-bent on screwing the American software engineers. ITAA, has recently been lobbying to make sure that more American labor goes offshore: http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,3959,928611,00.asp If you aren't familiar with this group - keep your eyes open - they find ways at every turn to screw the American I.T. professional. It is really sad. posted by jeff | 7:16 AM Sunday, March 23, 2003 Choreography a Mess? Phil Wainewright over at Loosely Coupled is of the opinion that the choreography space is a mess: http://www.looselycoupled.com/blog/2003_03_16_lc.htm#200027961 I'll have to disagree with Phil on this subject. BPEL4WS won. I'll repeat that, BPEL4WS won - there is no confusion about winners - just confusion about who lost. I am of the opinion that perhaps the w3c should quit trying to be everything to everyone. This group is over-extended and frankly shouldn't be concerning themselves about business process execution (IMHO). Don't get me wrong, I think they do a great job with low-level technologies like XML and HTML - but this one is probably not in their sweet spot. I really don't understand why they kick started this group after IBM & MS made their announcement and we already had BPML doing world-class work on moving the space forward as a whole. For the first time ever, the space actually isn't a mess... you just have to dig through the losers. posted by jeff | 7:32 AM |
