What this means

Drag-and-drop assembly of ECA components into ebXML process rolesOMG Domain specifications (Using ECA) can be ebXML Specifications

Enables an open marketplace of XML business components

A Shared Protocol in ebXml and ECA

The protocol is realized by roles in a business process

And drills down to sub-components

Sub-components can be wrapped legacy or executable program logic

The same components can support web pages
