The usage scenarios document reads:

|   It is a collection of usage scenarios and use cases which illustrate  
|   the use of Web services, and which are used to generate requirements  
|   for the Web services architecture, as well as to evaluate existing
|   technologies.

They could be defined here.

Hmm... the latest one says that a component is also a unit of
architecture. I think that it is valuable, but maybe needs
improvement.

This is what I meant when I talked about harmonization with the
architecture document. We should probably extract from the new version
a basic, general definition, and keep the more detailed ones around
for WSCWG investigation.
