Hi,

It's clear to me from Tuscany's plans that there will be a WSIF-like API
for invoking SCA components, and since all kinds of endpoints can be
described using the SCA component model it will have WSIF like capabilities
(albeit in the context of a more complex runtime).

Once this capability is supported by a Tuscany release, I will support
deprecating WSIF and helping the WSIF user community transition to using
Tuscany.

Thanks,
Nirmal.

Tuscany has just entered incubation and has not done a release yet. We
just imported the code into svn and the documentation is currently at:

http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/tuscany/contrib/java/trunk/docs/
