   Absolutely. Interoperability will be the catalyst for lots of this type
of app. I've helped the WfMC (http://www.wfmc.org) with their Wf-XML spec,
which provides for XML-based interoperability between workflow systems. It's
firmly grounded as an XML-only spec with the intent that the
interoperability can be implemented over any number of transports/protocols,
including TCP/IP and HTTP. There's even a MIME binding for email-based
interaction.
