Do you mean that SOAP based systems would take part in the MDA approach and as such can be described by an XMI serialization? Or do you mean that you intend to take the SOAP 'type system' and define its expression in XMI? Or do you mean that you intend to take XMI and define its serialization in SOAP encoding? Can you post the text of the issue that you plan to open? Lots of questions, but would appreciate the answers, since I've a keen interest in using XMI encoding in SOAP messages. cheers --oh
