In the JBI spec Figure 8 "in", "out" is wrt the service provider

So if A calls B then message is "in" A->B and "out" B->A

Similarly,
- the "in" message is the same as the ExchangePacket.inMessage
- the "out" message is the same as the ExchangePacket.outMessage

~~

Yet the ServiceMix ME & packet 'outbound' flag appears to have exact opposite direction

It seems like,
- A outbound=true to B  (= request)
- B outbound=false to A   (= response)

~~

The problem may simply be that I've been staring at this for too long and I'm seeing confusion where none exists.

Maybe my brain would be coping better if the boolean member was called 'request' or 'response' or something instead...

Or is there a simple reason for the apparent conflicting terminlogy of the "out" message v an 'outBound' message?

Just wondering.
Peter.
