 Hi all, 8-)
 this is to inform you that the XMLP WG has decided to close the 
issue #163 [1] with the resolution proposed in [2].

 Summary of the issue: the id attribute used in SOAP Encoding is
not the real XML 1.0 type ID, therefore applications have to deal
with this explicitly.

 Summary of the resolution: in resolution to issue 186 we have
agreed to add the description of constraints on the id and ref
attributes which makes us independent of XML Schema or DTD
processing. This does indeed mean that applications will probably
get little support from existing XML processing libraries.

 Best regards,

                   Jacek Kopecky
