[wsia] [wsia-glossary] Consumer, Consumer Application, Producer,WSIA Interface, WSIA Web Service: initial submission

Hi Jeffrey and team,

Here's an initial take on trying to define some of the more
basic terms in WSIA.

Consumer              A business entity creating Consumer Applications.

Consumer Application  A Web application that uses one or more 
                      WSIA Web Services.

Producer              A business entity creating, publishing and
                      supporting WSIA Web Services.

WSIA Interface        A programmatic interface defined by the WSIA 
                      committee to support the creation of Web Services
                      that encapsulate and integrate user-facing 
                      interactive applications.

WSIA Web Service      A SOAP-compliant Web Service that adheres to one 
                      or more WSIA interfaces.

Regards,
Eilon

Subject: [wscm] [wsia-glossary] Proposed process for glossary editing,
etc.




Here is a first stab at a minimal process for editing control over the
glossary.  First how about always using [wsia-glossary] in the subject
title when we are discussing terms to be included in the glossary.  If
you would like to submit a term for inclusion in the glossary use a
subject title similiar to :
[wsia-glossary] someTerm : initial submission 
subsequent discussions regarding this term would be 
[wsia-glossary] someTerm : bla bla bal 
after we have come to agreement, and the term is added to the glossary,
I will respond with 
[wsia-glossary] someTerm : added to glossary.
