This paper aims at sharing with the reader the experience with behavior protocols - the component behavior description introduced in our SOFA component model and emphasize the key research challenges we have faced in this respect during its 6 years existence and development. In particular, this includes the issue of finding the "right" semantics of fulfilling the behavior contract in terms of both horizontal (client-service) and vertical (nesting) cooperation of components. The contribution of the paper is that it brings our findings published "incrementally" under one umbrella and articulates verbally what was elsewhere captured in an exact, formal way.
