I don't really agree that the term "SOA" has a fluid or vague meaning; I think, instead, that many articles have been written in the popular press about it by people who do not understand the intended technology issues.  In fact, I believe that it is large the popular press who have invented the term.  My understanding has been, for quite some time, that SOA refers to the use of "web services" (either REST or SOAP style) to accomplish software reuse.  The attempt to stretch it to other meanings has been a misguided and seems to be a misinterpretation by people who don't really know what "web services" are.  So unless you violently disagree, I intend to revise the article somewhat.[[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] 13:10, 13 July 2008 (CDT)

I'd like to revise this article unless someone strongly objects

I don't really agree that the term "SOA" has a fluid or vague meaning; I think, instead, that many articles have been written in the popular press about it by people who do not understand the intended technology issues. In fact, I believe that it is largely the popular press who have invented the term. My understanding has been, for quite some time, that SOA refers to the use of "web services" (either REST or SOAP style) to accomplish software reuse. The attempt to stretch it to other meanings has been a misguided and seems to be a misinterpretation by people who don't really know what "web services" are. So unless you violently disagree, I intend to revise the article somewhat.Pat Palmer 13:10, 13 July 2008 (CDT)
