Re: Optional SOAP response; the transfer binding view

I think the redraft I posted at [1] is consistent with the assumptions and 
conclusions in your note.  Specifically, the inboundMessage and 
outputBoundMessage properties continue to consistent of the entire SOAP 
level message, including things like the WebMethod when appropriate.  All 
that's changed is that (a) the request/response MEP makes clear that the 
response messages for that MEP need not contain a SOAP envelope and (b) 
the HTTP binding makes clear that the correct embodiment of an otherwise 
successful "no envelope" response is an status code of 202.
