Martin,
I believe we went through that one.
Services are autonomous maintaining their own state.
Service combining and subsequent state management is maintained by a higher order concept (orchestration) which is not in the RM
At least I think this is the consensus??

So, where exactly is state maintained in an SOA??? Going to be tough to
execute transactions without state.

The comment about services being stateless is interesting. If we agree
with that assertion, it may affect the notion of a service processing
model (request to many responses). Also - that seems to be more tied to
the nature of the transport/binding mechanism itself.
