There is a lot of information going on here... how important is it that the information is recorded in one document as opposed to recording where the information can be obtained? It would seem a lot better that the BES endpoint remains the definitive source of the job status rather than some other document floating around the system... otherwise maintaining any form of consistency would be very hard IMHO.
I agree that there should be a fixed endpoint for retrieval. But which BES would we use? Plus, will the service that initially creates an activity instance for a client request have a BES interface no matter what? Regards, Alexander -- Dipl.-Inform.
