Re: MetadataSection in WS-Eventing - Issue 10376

Stephan and WSRA members (Gil and Wu in particular),
  while updating WS-Eventing and WS-EVD for this issue ( 
http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=10376 ) I noticed that A.2.1 
of Eventing seemed a bit short. In the EVD section we showed 3 examples of 
how the EVD data might be retrieved, while in the Notification WSDL 
section we didn't have any.  As part of the agreed solution to this issue 
I was going to add one example for the Notification WSDL (using 
mex.GetMetadata), but for consistency with the EVD section it made sense 
to also include two more example.  One for the Notif. WSDL embedded within 
the EventSource policy assertion directly, and one where a reference to 
the Notif. WSDL is in the EventSource policy assertion. 
  Note that I also added a comment to the mex.GetMetadata example pointing 
out that since the FormatName URI is not present in the 
GetMetadataResponse the user will need to disambiguate the Notification 
WSDL from other WSDL docs through some other means.
  Please look over the changes in the editor's copy and let me know if 
this is still consistent with our approved resolution.

Re: MetadataSection in WS-Eventing






With the two examples it is clear from my point of view.

Thanks,
