Brian: Your assertion is not correct, specs were not firmed up at all. I do remember looking at a WSDL draft, but if you look at how BPSS was designed, you will see that it has little in common if nothing at all with WSDL. BPSS was designed from requirements not from looking at other specs.

I do think that the ebXML folks looked at Web Services specs (since they were there already) and took the best of that and used and built on top of it. I'm not sure that the Web Services folks look into ebXML too much, if at all, particular for the flurry of WS-* specs that are out there. What is sad to me is all the WS talk related to customers and suppliers and B2B without talking about ebXML. It feels too one sided. Now that WS has died down a bit - is there a chance to stake a claim in certain areas? Say what is ebXML and where does it fit in with the other specs out there?
