The point of what I am doing is to specify a pattern with various views. I am not ruling out BPSS or UML as part of one of those views.

Architecture has to be of interest to both the builder and the patron.

Matt,

Sounds like you are drinking the BCM Kool-Aid here! ; -)

BCM definately talks about the business way to go after finding patterns - while how to define those patterns is left as an exercise to the reader - domain specific.

If we are going after an illustrative approach here - that's a bit more formal than just using PPT to draw boxes and lines - then I can grok that, eh?!

Thanks, DW

Take a look at what I am proposing in the latest draft. Its not so much a pattern language as a template for describing the abstract patterns we are addressing.

I'm taking a step back and re-examining our discussions on patterns that have occurred over the past several weeks, and have some questions please:

(1) I know we've said that we've decided that we would create a pattern language - is that what we *really* want? Is it too low-level (i.e. toward assembly language) for the purposes of this TC? Patterns can be conveyed without the use of a pattern language, as IBM does in their SOA Patterns redbook.

(2) What are some examples of existing pattern languages? I did not see any glaring references in any of the e-mail threads.
