Finally, a new MWD podcast episode – SOA 2.0, and Bill Gates' retirement
Saturday, June 17, 2006 by admin
In this 24’40″ episode Neil WD embarks on a grumpy monologue about SOA 2.0 – explaining why the term is so counter-productive and why it leads people to a dangerous, myopic perspective of SOA.
Neil M manages to get a word in edgeways, and explains how service-orientation and event-driven processing are actually completely different types of concept which shouldn’t be mixed design decision which shouldn’t be conflated. (Thanks to Steve - I didn’t explain it very well before!)
Jon Collins manfully tries to keep a rein on proceedings and largely succeeds.
Sorry it’s taken us so long to get this most recent episode to you (it’s three weeks or so since the last one…). We’ve just been crazily busy. We promise to try harder!
There’s also a separate 6’22″ postscript, sans Jon Collins due to a bit of a technical problem with our recording yesterday. In it Neil M explains why Bill Gates’ planned retirement from Microsoft is largely only interesting as a symbol of the company’s slow transition to a new technology strategy – rather than having a material impact on the company. Meanwhile Neil WD muses on what might make a good leaving present.

The audio uses 1 channel for each speaker. This technical detail really hinders me from listening on my iPod. Please use mono or have both channels have signal.
Kind regards, Guy Crets (Belgium)

Guy, thanks for the pointer. I hadn’t thought of that! I’m editing a new podcast episode now and I’ll try finalising it in mono this time.
