Hi Steve,
Is it worth utilizing WSDM MUWS spec in addition to WSRF/WSN?
Thanks, ---- Hiro Kishimoto
I've been trying hard to reduce dependencies on the specification. this iteration has gone from one known to work to one that will depend on early implementations of WSRF+WSN, such as GT4, the HP/Globus donation to Apache (Apollo & Hermes), or an equivalent. Even then we are now more dependent on changing specifications, instability of foundational things like WS-Addressing, and so it is that much harder from interoperable implementations. MOWS/MUWS adds more complexity. This does not mean that I am against writing manageable code, but think we can get away with it being implementation specific. For example, a Java implementation just needs to use the JMX APIs, and when a MUWS binding to JMX comes out, then it gets MUWS for free. Till then, we get SNMP amongst others. What opinions does anyone else have? -steve
