		<description>Great post. While I do not necessarily believe that SOA is purely a long-term value proposition, I do believe that its value compounds over time. In any event, persuading stakeholders to take that &quot;leap of faith&quot; is a very slippery slope, especially if you cannot sell tangible, incremental gains along with the package. 

Also, your comment that &quot;business can no longer predict more than a few weeks ahead&quot; really resonates with me. This innate unpredictability of today&#039;s business ecosystem is the subject of my blog, http://ChaoticIT.blogspot.com . Coincidentally, it includes a recent post on the ROI of SOA and a link to a free whitepaper. 

Keep up the great posts!</description>
