As Simon points out, this is now live on MSDN.

Interesting issue this month: I would say that each article is important for any architect to consider with a lot of emerging technology up for discussion and explanation.

My architectural bent is leading me towards lots of experimentation with Biztalk Services, and already I've found a lot of value in exploring the samples that come with that SDK in terms of consideration of how they might help an organisation, and I'm also impressed with the approach: playing to the strengths of WCF, with surprisingly simple config.

Speaking of Software + Services, I've added the presentation I gave at the SOA & BPM event at Thames Valley to the Presentations page of the 'all new' Labs @ MarcMyWords section of this site. (Not much there now, but I'll gradually catalogue stuff I've done/am doing).

I've also tweaked the blog theme - you can still IM me - but without the "fixed width control" pain.
