Abstract: This document describes Web Services Agreement Specification
(WS-Agreement), a Web Services protocol for establishing agreement
between two parties, such as between a service provider and consumer,
using an extensible XML language for specifying the nature of the
agreement, and agreement templates to facilitate discovery of
compatible agreement parties. The specification consists of three
parts which may be used in a composable manner: a schema for
specifying an agreement, a schema for specifying an agreement
template, and a set of port types and operations for managing
agreement life-cycle, including creation, expiration, and monitoring
of agreement states.
