Line 141:
"Middleware is computer software that connects software components or some people and their applications. The software consists of a set of services that allows multiple processes running on one or more machines to interact. This technology evolved to provide for interoperability in support of the move to coherent distributed architectures, which are most often used to support and simplify complex distributed applications. It includes web servers, application servers, and similar tools that support application development and delivery. Middleware is especially integral to modern information technology based on XML, SOAP, Web services, and service-oriented architecture."

*"interoperability ''[in itself a difficult word to grasp]'' in support of the move to '''coherent distributed architectures''' " -- ??????

I came to this article while trying to find out a little about [[Android (operating system)]] to understand more about how my husband's new Android-based phone is different from my new iPhone; the early paragraphs of that article referred to "middleware," which was a term I'd never heard. To dig deep into a concept like middleware, I accept, I would need to get used to complicated tech-talk. However, I still maintain that the first paragraph or so of this sort of article still should offer something that the casual reader/user might at least have a chance of comprehending at least partially. Can we not try again, here? [[User:Lawikitejana|Lawikitejana]] ([[User talk:Lawikitejana|talk]]) 12:58, 14 June 2011 (UTC)
