I think we might be mixing semantics. There is a difference between the lifetime of the agreement instance and the state of the agreement instance to be observed. The terminate message is supposed to move the agreement state to afterObserved while the WSRF lifetime addresses how long the Agreement service is supposed to be around. We might argue that thi sshould be the same but, in fact, I tend to think to keep it separate.
