Late comment on last call

Dear XML Protocol WG,

We are sorry that this comes a bit late.
At our editorial meeting last week, the I18N WG realized that
some important points were missing from our last call review
of SOAP 1.2.

In the last call review of the Character Model by the XML Protocol
WG, the XML Protocol WG and the I18N WG/IG have been discussing
how text normalization should apply to SOAP. For a compact
summary of the decisions arrived, see:
http://www.w3.org/International/Group/2002/charmod-lc/#C062

However, we have not found any text in the SOAP specs that says
that the envelope/headers have to be normalized, nor that it is
the responsibility of the payload provider to provide a suitably
normalized payload.

This should be added to the spec at the appropriate place.

Regards,    Martin.
