John - I second Terry's apology for the slow response to your question. I think it's fair to say that several members of the DAML-S coalition intend to produce DAML-S services in connection with the Experiment, depending of course on the Experiment requirements and scenarios as they evolve. There is also some exploration under way to see if it would be useful to use DAML-S to tie in with the CoABS Grid. Also, we've just begun talking to a commercial company (called WAND), which appears to have a leading position in providing product and service directories/ontologies, to determine if we could translate their existing service ontology into DAML-S. This could lead to a tie-in with UDDI, or rather, strengthen the tie-in already started by CMU. Regards, - David "Terry R. Payne" wrote: > John, > sorry for the delay.
