I have not had a chance to look into the OpenGroup soa-ontology, but I
would, as quite a few of us are coming from OASIS, first check out
where the OASIS SOA-related efforts are at. (01)
The last I heard, the OASIS SOA-RM (which, in my opinion, is a
wonderful piece of work) is onto building a ontology out of that work
(probably under the auspices of another OASIS TC). (02)
Rex, or Frank or Duane would probably in a good position to provide us
with more information on where things stand. (03)
Cheers. =ppy
