7.9. Summary
I am really happy to see the configuration of WCF simplified as this always put me off it (especially for simple scenarios). The closer integration with WF is a smart move and the new WS-Discover functionality is very cool. The integration of REST features is welcome, although I consider there are better frameworks for this kind of architecture.
