Here is my fundamental issue with the WS-I: is it focused on interop, like SOAP builders, or public rubberstamping of existing implementations to meet the implementors strategic goals. I mean, its not like the MS implementations pay full attention to section 5, and the .net stack(s) dont do SwA _or_ their proposed DIME alternative.
