So perhaps I am on a wrong track. But here it is:
A service has to have article names for its inputs and outputs
(according the new API).
An example: MyService produces GenericSequence with an article name
"Sequence". YourService is registered as consumig also GenericSequence but
with an article name "QuerySequence".
I put in Taverna a workflow: MyService --> YourService.
MyService produces a GenericSequence with a name "Sequence" - because
that's how it was registered. YourSequence gets data from MySequence. It
expect an article name "QuerySequence" but wht it gets is a sequence with
an article name "Sequence". YourService starts to wonder what the hell
should I do with it?
Because if YourService is able to accept any name, then why we bother
to have them at all?
Thsi is a situation, most common situation, where a service has only
one input and one output.
