Thanks Dave, I'll circulate to colleagues - is it in competition with
the Socitm event? ;-)

By the way, I was reading up on the history of SOA (service oriented
architecture), which was posited by a Gartner consultant and there is a
recent Gartner paper suggesting that Web 2.0 is distracting from SOA,
which should be the real concern. Its one of those front versus back
office dialogues. This is in the general business sector.

For the public sector, to confuse metters, I'm trying to develop a
Citizen Oriented Architecture which is a mix of front office and
performance tools that could then meet with the back-office SOA.

Any views on SOA versus Web 2.0?
