The response contains the requested elements, either encapsulate, or by WS-Address reference. WS-Mex can be used to GET SAWSDL-annotated WSDL or XSD resources (are they still documents at this point?). WS-Mex can be used for things not envisioned by the author, but it is very much about retrieving resources about a service, and not about associating parts of those resources with particular semantics or actions. Because of this, I don't think we need to worry about stepping on each-other's charters. In fact, I think for something to conflict with us, it must somehow (augmented infoset or XPath reference) add information to WSDL and XSD in the same places we do, and that info must be somehow useable to encode semantics or actions. I have a variety of comments on WS-Mex, which I will send to SAWSDL so we can decide if we want to, as a WG, submit comments to a the authors when they are soliciting comments "in the near future". -- -eric home-office: +1.617.395.1213 (usually 900-2300 CET) +33.1.45.35.62.14 cell: +33.6.73.84.87.26 (eric@w3.org) Feel free to forward this message to any list for any purpose other than email address distribution.
