UDDI/WSFL are Inadequate

The short version:
UDDI does not contain the actual service descriptions which are distributed. But
UDDI does not perform distributed search.

Even if it did, WSDL is not sufficiently expressive
to search for service operations
, such as "book a flight",
nor for a software program to understand how to use the operation.

(Trick Question: how do you use web services now to book a flight?)
