Greetings!
In lieu of the May 23 Collaborative
Expedition workshop, an open forum on Service-Oriented Architecture will
be held at MITRE on May 23-24.  This forum serves to open strategic
dialogue around the potentials and realities of Service-Oriented Architecture

agreements, in light of mutually understood commonalities and differences,
in order to advance business value, agility, and technology diversity.
