RE: [Bug 8306] New: description of Pull contains unclear sections

One of the reasons the a data source may need time to respond is because it may not host the data locally, it might be fronting some other service. The specification could clarify this.

           Summary: description of Pull contains unclear sections
           Product: WS-Resource Access
           Version: PR
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Enumeration
        AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
        ReportedBy: gilbert.pilz@oracle.com
         QAContact: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org


The description of Pull contains the following paragraph:

"Upon receipt of a Pull request message, the data source MAY wait as long as it deems necessary (but not longer than the value of the wsen:MaxTime element, if
present) to produce a message for delivery to the consumer. The data source MUST recognize the wsen:MaxTime element and return a wsen:TimedOut fault if no elements are available prior to the request message's deadline. Note, however, that this fault SHOULD NOT cause the enumeration context to become invalid (of course, the data source MAY invalidate the enumeration context for other reasons). That is, the requestor can issue additional Pull requests using this enumeration context after receiving this fault."

It's not clear why the data source would wait, etc.

General Proposal: reword for clarity
