I took advantage of the spring break week to make some significant headway on the term research paper. At first I was struggling with my chosen topic - SOA Governance. I read about 15 articles online and starting to become more comfortable with it. I was considering changing my topic to WS-Reliable Messaging. I have decided to stick it out with SOA Governance. I am about 75% done.

I was in North Carolina this past week. The weather was amazing. I hiked through some very large forests and basically tried to get lost. Unplugging for 5 days really can do wonders on the mind.
