This a a good sort of thing to have available - - sort of a graphical FAQ.  Thanks.
 
Couple of substantive comments:
(1) I think many of us are scoping the work too narrowly: a "services RM" does not solve what I (at least) need, which is a "services-oriented distributed application" reference model. I had always assumed that when people said "SOA" they meant the latter.  This draft seems to define the former.
(2)  I don't think the RM should necessarily be limited to elements that are mandatory in all implementations.  You suggest a formulation that avoids this for security (i.e, null security policy is a security policy); Rebecka used a similar device in observing that all mechanisms in a software environment can be defined as services and therefore we might not need to include any particular "SOA infrastructure" services separately in our RM.  I would prefer to be explicit in getting a maximum set of elements on the table (BPM for example) and then coming back later to refactor or simplify the model. Otherwise we may end up with an elegantly simple but trivial product, meaning one that does not provide any useful guidance to architects.
 
Martin
