> i have read yet another article (http://www.vnunet.com/News/1137043) on Web services, and to be honest, i do not know what to think about it anymore.  For a hot minute, i was under the impression that we were making good head-way with this technology, but now i am not so convinced anymore.

<non-plug>Another aspect is whether much simpler web-services architectures

are aimed at particular kinds of commercial services, and may not be the
most straightforward approach for environments where you want to 
expose existing applications as friendly services for inhouse use.</non-plug>

peer-to-peer infrastructures (in our case, using Sun's JXTA) can simplify web 
services for publishing and information systems, please come along to our booth.</plug>
