Web Services Enterprise Edition

What is the standard .wsdl for a workflow engine to expose its state?

What is the standard .wsdl to expose a message queue? What about a pub/sub topic?

What is the standard .wsdl to expose LDAP?

What is the standard .wsdl to expose POP? SMTP? FTP?

You know, it's great to have one-off wsdl's over at xMethods. But at some point we are going to have to pull together a 'library' (or profile) of wsdl's to expose the technology architecture. The library should be consistent in style. After we finish it we should throw it away - because it will be wrong. Then we should start over.
