Hi Paul,

Great to see this! It's something that I've thought was needed for a
long time. UDDI was designed for a world that doesn't now exist, and is
unlikely to develop within our lifetimes, where AI-type applications are
able to analyze services based on simple descriptions and link them
together at runtime to fulfill user needs (via liberal application of
magic pixie dust). It's a shame that it was blessed as a Java standard
by the Sun process when it had so little in the way of useful
functionality, but I think that's just due to the political nature of
the standardization process.

It'll be great when WSO2 gets out some user documentation (or even
architecture documents) for the project. I'm personally not big on
looking through source code to deduce where a project is going, but I
heartily approve of the goals.

  - Dennis
