There are already a number of business protocols 
{e.g. offer-acceptance and the various auction forms }
that could be implemented in many ways 
(e.g. RosettaNet PIP 3A4, ebXML BPSS, etc.).

If you usurp the term "business protocol" for
particular technical implementations, then
what do you call the technology-independent
business protocols that you are implementing?
