Re: Clarification needed on HTTP Transfer Coding

John, yes, that still needs clarification. 

My take would be like this:  

 1) BindingOperation {http transfer coding default} need not be copied
from Binding {http transfer coding default}, the defaulting rules for
{http transfer coding} should reach there themselves; however if both
defaults are present, the operation default applies to components within
this operation.
 2) BindingOperation {http transfer coding default} should not apply to
BindingFaultReference components (as per my previous email), and neither
should it apply to BindingFault components (because they are not in
scope).
 3) Binding {http transfer coding default} does not apply to Interface*
components, it should apply to BindingFault and BindingMessageReference
components.

If any of that disagrees with the current spec, I think the spec should
be fixed. 8-)

BindingMessageReference {http transfer coding} should default to
BindingOperation {http transfer coding default} or, if that is not
present, to Binding {http transfer coding default}.

BindingFault {http transfer coding} only defaults to Binding {http
transfer coding default}.

I'd say no such relationship is necessary, apart from that hidden in how
BindingMessageReference {http transfer coding} property is defaulted.

Hope it's not too controversial (or confusing),
