Jorgen Thelin's announces two new WS-* specifications (Ws-Enumeration and Ws-Transfer), is this really necessary or just more wood to the RESTfarians pundits?
What happened to Don Box's fewer specs more apps :-)
WS-specs coalition gang is on a roll, they already announced that although it's the journey that matters not the destination, they will most likely stop when WS-BoilTheOcean is finished. For now all efforts are being put on the definition of Ws-KitchenSink
Disclaimer: I haven't read the specs, i just like to shoot first and ask questions later (who doesn't? :-)).
Speaking of Don Box, he has a similar post and called it WS-Hammer, and says something about the 4 stages people go through when they have an third degree encounter with WS-transfer. Hummm don't get it yet, guess i'm still on stage one. (stage 1,2 and 3 seems pro-REST and stage 4 anti-REST). Maybe i can understand after i rest a while (no pun intended, have a nice weekend).
[Update: Seems it didn't took that long, Mark Baker a well know RESTfarian, seems to like WS-Transfer]
[Update: Harry Pierson, seems to be stuck <gr&d> in phase I, but at first sight seems to identify WS-Transfer as a WS-CRUD]
[Update Here is an opinion on WS-Transfer from Jeff Schneider]
[Update: Two not very nice opinions about how WS stack is evolving, one from Sean McGrath and another from Tim Bray]
