Sanjiva,
Thank you for the information. I do have a concern however. Are these
specifications open? In other words will they be submitted to a
standards body such as the W3C, or are they proprietary to BEA, IBM,
and/or Microsoft?
I guess my main concern is will be possible for a 3 party to provide an
implementation of the specifications?
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for the clarification. I assumed as much but, I guess I'm just a
little paranoid :)
Thanks!

The intent is absolutely to submit it to a standards body. I
currently don't know who/when/where however.

That's absolutely the intent - to have open, free standard
languages and compete on the implementations.
Bye,
Sanjiva.
