We should probably kick off a discussion of the relative importance of the
criteria Rex outlined (thanks Rex!)
My order (basically critical success factors ranked higher than
functionally required criteria):
- Functionality => why would developers/vendors care if it must be
extended by each environment in order to be useful.
- Flexibility => if the standard can't be used on common platforms/tools,
it will fail to be adopted.
- Performance => page load time is a major success factor on the web
- Privacy => (Includes security) Critical for many targetted applications,
but not all
- Simplicity => make adoption as easy as possible
- Expressiveness => Both the mentioned tooling and advanced WSIA use cases
require this
- Modularity => We are working on the first of these
- Extensibility => breaking the inherently extensible WSDL model would be
a bad thing
