Hi Mark,

I was involved in the early stages of the Microsoft's Enterprise Development Reference Architecture (formerly Shadowfax) which is availlable on GotDotNet.

This project provides a good reference architecture for Service Orientation, but does not (last time I looked) support any of the WS-* specs nor has is it been build on top of WSE 2.0. The project comprises a re-usable framework and a sample application called "Model Bank". All source is provided.

For something a little more WS-* you could wait for Proseware which is a soon to be release Microsoft reference application build by Clemens Vasters 's company. There's a description of the project and the talk Clemens gave on it at TechEd Europe here.

Another project worthy of mention is FABRIQ , also on GotDotNet.
