Joe,
I would concur and humbly submit that the best pattern language we have right now for our purposes may well be BPSS - in creating patterns of eb processes that the SOA then implements.
In the whole arena of BPM there is much work on patterns of course - and right now I'm re-visiting some old "friends" in terms of the activity diagrams and process flow description work that was done by the Prolog community that pre-dates pi-calculus - but for certain mission profiles provide an excellent fit. Horses for courses though - and with all the work on legal business process interactions that underpins the BPSS model - its hard to find a better pattern system for the eb domain IMO.

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.
Thanks, Joe
