Justice

The so-called Global Advisory Committee of the US Department of Justice mandates SOA in its new strategic plan (pdf).

Paul Wormeli of PEC Solutions Inc (slogan: "Web-Enabling Government") describes this move as a disruptive technology, a paradigm shift, a giant leap.

Some useful background to the DOJ decision can be found in discussion minutes for Nov 10, 2003 (pdf), which includes brief comment about related SOA work.
