Ok, I see what you mean. I believe you are referring to this proposal [1]. One 
thing I have not figured out from the proposal yet is how we know the addresses 
of services to which the routing service is about to redirect? Through some 
kind of registries or a configuration loaded from a separate file or a WSDL 
extension.? Once this kind of discussion gets started, I do not see how it can 
end by the end of this release. Service routing is a huge topic anyway. However 
we will have much less to worry about if we are not after a complete resolution 
of service routing. For example, if we only support the routing among different 
endpoints within the same Destination, would this feature be considered helpful 
for some certain use cases? Reading your proposal, I believe this is also what 
you want to do, start from sth simple first. If this is the case, I am ready to 
get my hands dirty now. 

BTW, I am in a traveling at the moment, I may not respond in time until I get 
back to office next Tuesday.
