I guess a SOAP interface is the most useable. anonymous wrote : 2) Updates - The services will need to get registered in the Registry. How would the users do this? I'd wonder if we need to worry about this!! Who needs to make reg updates? Will reg updates need to be made by a running ESB or Services? Do we need it for the GA release? anonymous wrote : 3) Authentication - I suppose we would require authentication modules for the Registry. Since the Registry will be stand alone, we may need to figure out this. For the GA release (and possibly beyond), can we not rely on some form of container managed security (Authentication/Authorisation)? Just seems like this is a nut that's been cracked a million times over!
