SPS_WPS Change REquest  1  08-037  Pat Cappelaere  2008-03-03
This is a change request to dissolve the SPS and WPS specifications to treat them as workflows under the Business Process Management definition.
SOAP bindings have been defined for workflows (see the Workflow Management Coalition work of Wf-XML) which also address WS-Notification and WS-Addressing. A RESTful approach has been proposed as part of OWS-5: WfXML-R.

The final product of this change request ought to be the official release within the OGC and WfMC communities in June 2009 of WFXML and WfXML-R with any enhancements if needed.
