James Governor forwarded me a note from Duane Nickull the other day pointing to the Wikipedia entry on SOA. It seems like our anti SOA 2.0 petition – in a small way – helped to make the IT industry a less bonkers place.
We got to 480-odd “real signatories” (there were, unsurprisingly given my very hasty scripting of the petition page, a few spambot-generated entries too) and that was a hell of a lot more than I was expecting.
As a consequence the “SOA 2.0 or Advanced SOA” section on the Wikipedia SOA page seems to be tending towards a dismissal of the term “SOA 2.0″ as a cynical marketing ploy. (Which of course it was).
It’s a small step forward, but Wikipedia is a pretty widely read source so it’ll do for me.
Now we have to think of another cause to fight for! Any ideas?
