WS-* synoptic table

Did you ever wished to have a springboard from where you can access all the WS-* specs which are relevant to your work?

I don't have anything against the specification home in MSDN, in fact I love the taxonomy with the picture which rescues you from cognitive overhead by highlighting the current section; however for plumbing reasons I often need to go straight to the normative text and having to traverse a hierarchy can be cumbersome. So here there's my personal springboard: you can find it also in a permanent article there. I can't promise I'll keep that up to date, in fact I'm pretty sure I won't, but for the time being it may stay useful for a while ;-)
