WSDL Goals
Provide a unifying way of describing new and existing services
The language must be open with respect to
- service platforms (multiple type systems)
- service interaction types: message/procedural
- protocols: WSDL is extensible to allow new protocol bindings
- XML Schema, SOAP-XMLP will be dominant choices.
Provide the base for a Web services component composition framework
